NEW WASHINGTON – The Buckeye Central Local Schools Board of Education approved a contract at its meeting Thursday, Feb. 6, 2025 that allows the Mid-Ohio Educational Service Center to assist the district in finding their new superintendent.

Mark Robinson plans to retire later this year after more than a decade with the district.

Mid-Ohio ESC is requesting assistance from staff, parents, students and the community for Buckeye Central Local Schools.

An online questionnaire is now live asking for feedback about what the community deems important for their district superintendent. Responses to the questions will help the Board of Education develop a profile of leadership qualities to assist in the search for the new superintendent.

The questionnaire can be found at https://www.moesc.net/human-resources/executive search. Surveys may be submitted by responding to the Google survey through the link.

Respondents may also download a copy and email kimmel.kevin@moesc.net, or print it out and mail to Kevin Kimmel, Superintendent, 890 West Fourth Street,
Mansfield, Ohio 44906, by Feb. 21, 2025.

“The Buckeye Central Local Schools Board of Education is looking forward to our partnership with Mid-Ohio Educational Service Center,” Buckeye Central Board President Lisa Aichholz said.

“Their experience in helping school districts include community members and staff in the search process is invaluable. I hope everyone interested in having a voice will take the time to participate.”
