Central 301 Introduces Interim Co-Superintendents
During the week of February 10, Central 301 Board of Education conducted panel interviews for the interim superintendent position, meeting with candidates from a variety of backgrounds, each bringing extensive knowledge and leadership experience.
At a special Board of Education meeting, the Board approved the hiring of Dr. Griff Powell and Dr. Kyle Schumacher as interim co-superintendents. Both Dr. Powell and Dr. Schumacher are experienced educational leaders who have served as superintendents in other districts and come highly recommended by their former communities.
To comply with Illinois Teacher Retirement System post-retirement regulations, Dr. Powell and Dr. Schumacher will alternate their time at the district office while working collaboratively to ensure a smooth transition. The Board of Education is confident that their combined expertise will provide strong leadership as the district moves forward in its search for a permanent superintendent.
Dr. Powell and Dr. Schumacher officially began their roles on Monday, March 3.
Central 301 Board of Education welcomes Dr. Powell and Dr. Schumacher and appreciates their commitment to serving the students, staff, and families of our district during this transitional period.
