Dr. Jake Long is looking for work at another school district.

Long as been acting Superintendent with the St. Joseph School District since February when the Board of Education first began the process of terminating Dr. Fred Czerwonka.

In a statement released through the St. Joseph School District Long said, “I am taking everything one day at a time. Ultimately, if I do leave the St. Joseph School District, it will be a personal decision based on what is best for my family.

I will continue to pour my heart and soul into the work of the St. Joseph School District as we go through this difficult time.”

In a news story written by the West Plains Daily Quill Long is cited as one of four finalists in the running for the position of Superintendent in the Mountain Home Arkansas School District.

The article said, “Long told The Quill that the last he’s heard he is still in the running for the Mtn. Home position. “It’s a personal decision based on what I have to do to be closer to my family. And, ultimately I’m just taking it one day

at a time.’’”
