At tonight’s meeting, the Board accepted a restructuring plan that included several recommendations that I am excited to share with you now. I am pleased to announce that the board approved appointing Mr. Burdorf as the Director of Communications effective the 25-26 school year.
In this role, he will:
- Develop and implement a proactive communications plan.
- Oversee all district communications and branding.
- Enhance engagement through traditional and digital media.
- Collaborate with the superintendent and staff on key communication initiatives.
- Promote and publicize school events and achievements.
- Support grant writing and manage the communications budget.
- Represent the district at community events and employment fairs.
- Representing the district in community visioning initiatives
This role is pivotal in enhancing our district's outreach and engagement with all stakeholders. We are confident that Mr. Burdorf's leadership and expertise will benefit our district, fostering stronger connections. Please join us in congratulating Mr. Burdorf on his new role.
While Mr. Burdorf will not step into this role until July 1, it is important that the decision and announcement is made now so we can recruit and hire a new principal for the middle school. That search will begin now the position has been board approved.
Additionally, the board restructured the Director of Student Services into two separate roles including an Early Childhood Coordinator and a Special Education Director. This change aims to provide more intensive support for both programs which will positively impact our students and families.
I am equally pleased to share the board has approved hiring a Positive Supports and Bullying Prevention Coordinator. This new role will be instrumental in:
- Educating students using anti-bullying, intimidation, and harassment curriculums.
- Implementing intervention strategies.
- Investigating filed complaints.
This position will play a crucial part in fostering a safe and supportive environment for all our students.
Each of the positions will add value and contribute to the district's success. I fully anticipate positive outcomes and results for the students, staff, and community that are all a part of the district.
