Tony Roth is interim Asst. Superintendent

According to the Maysville Ledger-Independent, an interim assistant superintendent has been named for Fleming County schools.
Tony Roth was appointed to the interim assistant superintendent position and assumed the duties on Aug. 1. Roth is a former teacher and a former principal at Ewing Elementary School.
"Mr. Roth brings a wealth of knowledge about students in Fleming County and we are excited he has taken on this interim role," Superintendent Kelley Crain said Friday.
Roth, who also currently oversees the facilities for the school district, said he is excited to hold the position if only as the interim.
"This is a challenge I accept so that I may continue to serve the staff and students of Fleming County schools. I intend to do the best job I can." Roth said. "I have aspirations of being a superintendent someday and this is a great opportunity for me."
Crain said a final decision for filling the position will be made once a tribunal hears the appeal of former assistant superintendent Jeff Burke, who was dismissed by Crain for reasons which have not been disclosed.
