We have been fortunate to enjoy the excellent leadership of Superintendent Dr. Steve Malone for many years. You may be aware that Steve will retire at the end of this school year. As such, the School Board has initiated a search for a new leader and we are asking you to help us with the process.

We have developed a brief survey to gather feedback on what we need in a new leader and to identify what people think the new superintendent should focus on during the first couple of years. Please take a few moments to follow the survey link you will find below and share your thoughts with us:

In mid-January, we will convene groups of staff, administrative, and citizen stakeholders to discuss the search and to identify the characteristics we should seek in the new leader. By early February, we will begin to sort through applications for the position. Interviews are scheduled for mid-February and we will include representatives from these stakeholder groups as well as the survey data in the interview process. It is our hope to have identified and hired our new superintendent by late February. He/she will begin on or about July 1.

Thanks in advance for your feedback into our search process. We appreciate your ongoing support of the Becker School District.
