Contract specifics, including Register's $285,000 salary and benefits request, must be negotiated before the deal is final.
The selection almost didn't happen because of disputes over the candidates and concerns about the search process.
Three attempts to abandon the vote and start a new search were defeated Saturday. Freshman board member Alan Coverstone and veteran board member Ed Kindall were the primary opponents of hiring a new director.
After it became obvious there wasn't enough support to abandon the vote, board members settled on Register, who is a consultant and part-time professor.
The shaky support didn't deter Register, who said he's confident he can win the board's full support.

At one point in the deliberations, one of the school board members expressed concern over Register because he's a white male. Huh? No one had concerns about other candidates because of skin color, they brought up traits that would effect how they would do the job. Ridiculous.
With leadership like that what could go wrong?
