Dr. Kevin Skinkis has now been RB’s superintendent for almost a semester. He has faced a number of challenges, including a divided school board with four newly elected members, the financial aftermath of a failed referendum campaign, on top of simply the experience of being a new chief administrator.
Clarion got a chance to talk to him about his time here so far, and the challenges and experiences he has gone through.
