"Is being a certifiable, clueless idiot a prerequisite for the job of Ravena-Coeymans-Selkirk superintendent, or is it just a happy coincidence that the current holder of that title has that qualification?"

Yep, if this is the same Alan McCartney who was superintendent at next-door Voorheesville 25 years ago. Never explained why he moved to the lower-paying job at (downscale) Ravena.

Yes it’s him. He has a colorful past.
