​GAPS board hires Saxton
​as interim superintendent

• Saxton names Rich Sipe as temporary chief of staff; mask requirement back for GAPS (July 30, Albany Democrat-Herald)

 The Greater Albany Public Schools board voted 4-1 Monday, July 26,  to hire Rob Saxton as interim superintendent. The vote came after the board interviewed Saxton, a former state deputy superintendent of public instruction and former South Albany and West Albany coach, teacher and West assistant principal.
  Michael Thomson cast the lone dissenting vote. Thomson said that despite the board's rush to hire an interim superintendent before the school year starts,  Saxton will only be on the job for one-third of August because of previous personal commitments.
​  Monday's vote came less than two week after the board voted 4-1 to fire Superintendent Melissa Goff.
