Superintendent Search Continues for USD 430

By Brian Hagen

01/17/2017

(KNZA)--The search for a new Superintendent to oversee the schools of south Brown County is continuing.

That follows the formation of 6 focus groups, made up of 62 participants, assisting with the search. They are comprised of members of the community, students, certified staff, classified staff, Board of Education staff, and Administration staff.

Last Thursday, those groups met with Dr. Brian Johnson, Director of Leadership Services for the Kansas Association of School Boards, who is assisting USD 430 with the search. He posed questions to the groups, and did the same to the members of the Board of Education during a special meeting held that same evening.

The questions are apparently intended to help focus in on what the district desires in a new Superintendent.

Another special meeting of the USD 430 Board of Education, focused on the search effort, will be held Monday evening, January 23, at 6:00, at the Board office in Horton.

The need to fill the role of Superintendent comes as Dr. Steve Davies plans to retire at the end of the 2016-2017 school year. He has served as the Superintendent for the South Brown County Schools for 16-years. He announced his decision in July.
