Former Statesboro High School principal Dr. Martin "Marty" Waters, who in May had his teaching certificate restored after a retroactive one-year suspension in a settlement with the Georgia Professional Standards Commission, began work last week as interim superintendent of schools in Evans County. He fills in following the June 30 retirement of Dr. Joy Collins, who concluded a 27-year career as an educator with eight years as superintendent, until the Evans County Board of Education selects a permanent superintendent. Waters may be considered for that job but has not been promised it, and the board has received a separate pool of applicants through a search conducted through the Georgia School Boards Association.
