I'd be shocked if he got this job! The city residents....if they are smart....will inform OH of his shady past! That is of course unless this OH school doesn't care like the city school district didn't for years!

Just the opposite BT. The residents should keep quiet {like usual} or better yet sing his praises. Anything to get him out of here and off the taxpayers back. Would you rather have him leave or pay him $500,000 in a contract buyout?
SCHENECTADY — Schenectady Superintendent of Schools Eric Ely has made the cut for another superintendent’s position, this one with the Toledo Public Schools, according to media reports. Ely is one of eight semifi nalists for the job to replace Superintendent John Foley. Foley is leaving at the end of July. The district is the fourth largest public school system in Ohio, with 30,000 students. Ely is also a finalist for the superintendent’s job in the Mansfield, Ohio, city school district. An interim superintendent is running the 3,700-student K-12 urban school district. Ely has been aggressively searching for a new position in the wake of allegations he failed to act on workplace misconduct allegations concerning former district facilities manager Steven Raucci.
