Former Education Commissioner Helping in Wayne Superintendent Search

Consulting firm owner is volunteering his time to the district, report says.

The Wayne Board of Education is looking to use the same search tactics that found Superintendent Ray Gonzalez two years ago to find his replacement.

According to a NorthJersey.com report, the district is once again working with Dr. William Librera, a former Commissioner of Education for the state of New Jersey, to help find a permanent replacement for Gonzalez, who announced his resignation last month.

Librera, who owns consulting firm West Hudson Associates is currently volunteering his time to the district, the report said.
