ADMINSTRATOR TO RETIRE; GETS NEW ASSIGNMENT

Hackley, 58, left his current position Monday to oversee the city's alternative education and regional alternative education programs, managing a budget of more than $1 million. He will hold that job for the remainder of the academic year.

School Superintendent E. Wayne Harris said he will make a decision about how to fill Hackley's old position during the next two months.

"I really needed his expertise [in alternative education]," Harris said.

Hackley said he hopes to spend his early retirement years pursuing a dream to work with at-risk children in the private sector. He is working with a small group of people from Charlottesville that hopes to begin its work next August.

He would not disclose the names of others involved in the project or the details of what they would be doing. Hackley did say, however, that his wife, Mary, who oversees elementary education for the school system, would not be leaving to join the project.
