Dr. Stephen Newton has been appointed as acting Superintendent until the school board can appoint an interim leader. But looking towards the future, what do you most want to see in the next person chosen to lead the district long-term?
Back to Basics
Maybe you want someone who will make the 'three Rs" of reading, writing, and arithmetic a top priority.
Innovation
Or, on the flip side, maybe you want an innovator who will "think outside the box" and bring some new ideas to the table.

The Teacher Lens
You can have all the nice buildings and the latest technology, and it won't matter much without good teachers. Do we need someone who will stand up for teachers and make them a priority?
