The search for the district’s next superintendent is underway! Throughout the search, we will be providing updates on the website, so please feel free to check in periodically.
We are working through our consultant, Tom Templeton, the Founder and Creative Director of TEMPLETON Advantage, LLC. Tom has conducted many searches over the last 20 years as an educational consultant, and has a deep understanding of our district, especially as a native of Perry County.
We are looking for a superintendent with qualities that include, but are not limited to:
- Strong and proven leadership skills;
Effective communication skills that informs, engages and collaborates with all stakeholders;
- The desire to create a trusting, dynamic board-superintendent partnership;
The confidence and humility to forge school-community partnerships;
- The core values that fosters trust, respect and accountability;
- Financial, operational and strategic leadership knowledge and experiences;
Educational leadership abilities to effectively lead the administrative team;
- Display professional qualities that serve as a role model for everyone.
We will be further developing the strategic competencies and leadership experiences needed in the next superintendent as the search continues.
We will be back in touch soon with more details related to the search process. We hope you are finding time to have some relaxing and revitalizing experiences with friends and family over the summer!
