LOUDONVILLE – The Loudonville-Perrysville Board of Education is inviting school staff and members of the community to give their input in the search for a new superintendent.
Supt. John Miller, who has served the district as superintendent for 18 years, is retiring at the end of the school year. The Ohio School Boards Association will be assisting the Loudonville-Perrysville Board with the search.
OSBA consultant Teri Morgan will host focus group sessions to review the hiring process and gather input on Thursday, Feb. 23, in the Loudonville High School cafeteria. A focus group for staff will take place at 4:30 p.m. and the community focus group will be at 6:30 p.m.
Three main topics will be covered in the focus groups: major issues facing the L-P school district in the next three to five years, performance expectations for the next superintendent, and professional qualities to be sought in the new superintendent. Morgan will give the board a detailed report of the conversations.
Anyone who is interested in participating but unable to attend a focus group can still have their voice heard by completing a paper survey available from the OSB or the Loudonville-Perrysville School District Administration office.
For more information or to submit any comments, residents should contact Morgan at tmorgan@ohioschoolboards.org.
