If, for any reason, the school board shall decline to approve an assistant superintendent or principal so recommended, the superintendent or the board’s designee shall make additional recommendations for the place or places to be filled.

When the assistant superintendents and principals of the schools have been recommended and approved as provided in the preceding paragraph, the superintendent of such district shall enter into proper contracts with them. At a subsequent meeting he shall report same to the school board and such shall be entered in the minutes.

An interim conservator appointed pursuant to the provisions of Section 37-17-6(15)(a) shall not be required to comply with the time limitations prescribed in this section for recommending and employing assistant superintendents and principals.
