As many of you are
aware Mr. Evjen, our school superintendent, has decided
to retire from our district and enjoy his time with his
wife, family, and hobbies. While we are very happy for
Mr.Evjen,
we know our job as a school board is to now find a
full-time effective, strategic administrator who can
lead our district into the future. With that in mind,
we have partnered with a superintendent search firm,
School Exec Connect, led by former Minnesota
superintendents to assist us with our search.
Beyond informing you
of the search process and timelines, we would like to
invite you to provide constructive input to assist us in
making the best possible selection. Over the next few
weeks, representatives from the search firm will be
meeting with board members, administrators, school
staff, students, parents,and
community members to determine the characteristics and
skills our community values in our next superintendent.
All
of this information will guide us during our selection
process. Our goal is to have our superintendent hired
by the end of April.
