The Plano ISD Board of Trustees on April 12 named Interim Superintendent Richard Matkin as the lone finalist for the position of superintendent of schools. Mr. Matkin joined Plano ISD as associate superintendent for business services in 2001. His thirty-six years of experience have yielded him the reputation as a school finance authority. 
Several administrative and principal appointments were announced at the May 1 meeting of the Plano ISD Board of Trustees. Appointments included Renee Godi as the first principal to lead Plano ISD's new PBL Academy, new principals at Jasper and Shepton High Schools and Frankford, Murphy and Otto Middle Schools and at Hunt and Weatherford Elementary Schools.
