Despite the challenges of COVID-19, the school year is coming to a close! I could not be more grateful to our staff, students and families for doing all they can to ensure we have stayed safe and open. Remember to wear your masks, maintain distance from others, and wash your hands often. If students are feeling sick, they should stay home.
I am confident that the 2021-22 school year will be back to normal as much as possible. As always, I will keep the community updated of any modifications we will need to make. Until then, let's all remain vigilant until this pandemic is completely behind us.
If you have questions or concerns, you can reach me anytime via email, phone, or follow me on Twitter @JoeSuperintend1
Go Knights!

Superintendent
What Does a Superintendent Do?It's been said of a school district's organizational structure that if the school board decides it wants to make a pie, the superintendent decides what type of pie to make, and the staff does the actual baking. Ultimately, a superintendent is responsible for the day-to-day operations of all of the personnel and facilities in a school district. The duties of a superintendent can be categorized under five different areas: 1. Vision, Continuous Improvement, and Focus of District Work2. Communication and Collaboration3. Policies and Governance4. Instruction5. ResourcesThe Department of Education and the State Board of Education have adopted specific roles and responsibilities for superintendents in Ohio. You can find those standards by clicking HERE.
