The Pueblo School District No. 60 Board of Education is seeking a superintendent beginning on July 1, 2024, with a base salary range expected to be $225,000 to $300,000 (based on experience); other benefits to be negotiated. The Board of Education expects applicants to be accomplished and energized leaders who understand the unique role and value of the community and school district and who are prepared to engage, collaborate, and inspire teachers, staff, students, parents, alumni and the community to achieve a shared vision of a great school district with great schools.

Pueblo School District No. 60 is located in the heart of a beautiful and dynamic city, Pueblo, Colorado, also known as Home of Heroes (4 Congressional Medal of Honor recipients).  Pueblo is a diverse community located 100 miles south of Denver with a less than two-hour drive to the Metro Denver area, and sits on the western edge of the Great Plains and at the junction of the Arkansas River and Fountain Creek near the Wet Mountains of the majestic Sangre de Cristo range.  Pueblo is the county seat and the most populous municipality of Pueblo County, CO. The city population is approximately 115,000 making Pueblo the ninth most populous city in Colorado.

Pueblo is a historically and culturally rich community enjoying a temperate year-round climate with four distinct mild seasons, crisp air and over 300 days of sunshine per year. It boasts of a superior infrastructure including rail, airport, Interstate 25, clean and plentiful water, as well as technological adequacy. The region is heavily agricultural, with large- and small-scale farming and ranching, and a strong mix of service, retail, manufacturing, and technology industries.

Pueblo attracts outdoor enthusiasts to a full slate of summer and winter recreational activities, encompassing water sports at Lake Pueblo, biking, running or walking along Pueblo’s beautiful river trail system, which connects the Historic Arkansas River Project (HARP) and the Union Avenue Historic Commercial District, golfing, playing tennis, hiking or skiing in the nearby mountains. Local and national artists perform at the Sangre de Cristo Arts and Conference Center, the Colorado State Fair Events Center, and Pueblo Memorial Hall. The Pueblo Convention Center and hotel accommodations offer visitors and the community a venue for large gatherings.

El Pueblo History Museum, the Pueblo City and County library system and the ability to utilize the libraries and facilities at Colorado State University-Pueblo (a regional comprehensive university) and Pueblo Community College (a two-year comprehensive community college) empower diverse learners with the availability of high quality resources.

Pueblo School District 60's central mission is "to provide a high-quality education that assures each student the knowledge, skills, and dispositions to lead a life of purpose and impact." District 60 serves 15,000 students from the close-knit, historic community of Pueblo, which currently includes nearly 115,000 residents. There are 30 schools: 17 elementary schools, four middle schools, four high schools, an alternative/online high school, two International Baccalaureate magnet schools, and two charter schools. The district has 2338 employees. 

District 60’s student body comprises 75% minority students and 80% that qualify for free or reduced lunch programs.  The District is dedicated to providing an education that not only endows students with the tools to succeed but educates "the whole child" by fostering strong character-development traits in all students. The vision in District 60 to become a high-performing school district inspires community confidence.

In Pueblo District No. 60, we believe that:

  • The success of every student is our most important commitment.

  • Collaboration and engagement with our community, parents, staff, and students are essential to our success.

  • We must act with integrity, celebrate diversity, and promote equity.

  • Each individual must be treated with dignity and respect.

  • The social and emotional well-being of our students is as important as their academic needs.

  • It is our responsibility to provide a safe, positive, and supportive environment for our students and staff.

  • Our community heritage, traditions, and history should inform our response to future student and district needs.

District’s Point of Pride / Accomplishments:

  • Comprehensive Ed Programs, including IB, STEM, CTE; a comprehensive network of curriculums and programs that encompasses the spectrum of learning. 

  • Curriculum/robust assessment across all content areas. With the adoption and implementation of several innovative curriculum programs and assessment parameters, the District has ensured that scholars are learning with an eye toward the future, with the assessment providing an accurate gauge on the effectiveness of this learning. 

  • Significant improvement in academic achievement. The District, through relentless determination, has successfully broken any correlation between race, poverty and achievement, as witnessed by the fact that some of its highest-poverty schools are now 'Performance' schools, and others have moved off the accountability clock. The majority of the District's schools are in the state's top-tier "Performance" framework, while others continue to make progress. 

  • $218M Bond/Five new schools. Reflecting a renewed bond of trust and confidence with the community, the District was successful in seeing a $218 million bond passed, which led to the building of five new schools and the renovation of others in need of critical repairs. 

  • Support for a full range of safety, health, emotional & social needs. The District has, through an increase of access to mental health professionals, social works and other supports, expanded the needed resources to ensure that our scholars' needs are met on every level. Professional development, as well as Family Academy Nights, have likewise provided the tools necessary to address the safety, health, and wellbeing of our scholars. Through a district-wide SEL Curriculum, our scholars as well as families receive the knowledge, skills, and attitudes to develop healthy identities, manage emotions and achieve personal and collective goals. 

  • Successful implementation of a five-year strategic plan. Serving as a guiding foundation for both the present and the future, the District's Five-Year Strategic Plan saw a host of successes realized, leading to a three-year extension, which will continue to bolster the District's mission and guiding purpose.

Superintendent

Washington Central Unified Union School District - East Montpelier, Vermont

Application Deadline: March 3, 2024
Posted : Jan. 24, 2024
Starting Date: July 1, 2024

Job Description

Washington Central Unified Union School District (WCUUSD) seeks a Superintendent for our consolidated school district in North Central Vermont.  WCUUSD serves nearly 1400 students with a $42 million annual budget for our pre-K through grade 12 district.

Governed by a committed 15-member board, WCUUSD operates on a $42M budget in service to five town-based elementary schools and one regional middle and high school.  Our five towns (Berlin, Calais, East Montpelier, Middlesex, and Worcester) are each reflective of classic, close-knit New England villages. WCUUSD is a member of our regional Central Vermont Career Center School District. Historically, our townspeople have shown strong support for their schools and public education in general. 

WCUUSD is in the process of developing a strategic plan, which will be finalized this spring and will be implemented by the incoming Superintendent. We have a long-standing and firm commitment to ensuring our schools are welcoming and diverse places for all learners. We look forward to welcoming a leader who will help us continue this journey and one that will allow our students to see themselves reflected in the schools and district.

Nestled in beautiful central Vermont, the presence of state government, the home office of a national financial services company, a variety of post-secondary educational institutions, and a relatively well-educated population ensure that our students have many educational, social, and cultural opportunities.  A rich and diverse lifestyle is ever present in the area.  Galleries, biking, canoeing and kayaking, camping, foodies’ paradise, stunning foliage, farmers’ markets, picturesque drives, golf, hiking, music events, historical sites, alpine and Nordic skiing, hunting and fishing, performing arts, brewery tours, snowmobiling and sports for all seasons are minutes away.  Vermont’s largest city of Burlington is less than an hour’s drive while the state capital of Montpelier is right next door.  Get-aways are a practical drive away: Boston (2 hours), Montreal (2.5 hours) and the Maine coast (2 hours) are examples.   

Our student population shows little racial or ethnic diversity but spans significant differences along the axes of income and socio-economic status. Natural population growth is stagnant, but in-migration, much of it drawn by our schools’ good reputations, has buoyed our student counts. WCUUSD is committed to meeting the needs of all students and is working to actualize our Commitment to Humanity and Justice through an emphasis on the humanity of all community members and accepts accountability for addressing the implications of equitable and just practices across the district. 

The successful candidate will possess sufficient training and experience to professionally perform at a high level while undertaking the core responsibilities as laid out in Vermont statutes.

A strong candidate will demonstrate the ability:

  • To communicate effectively with a variety of stakeholder groups, including citizens, parents, students, and our entire staff, who are all valued contributors to our school district, and

  • To  maintain a positive, supportive working relationship with our district board based on shared values of transparency, honest communication, and collaborative problem solving.

Our ideal candidate is well rounded and able to respond constructively to the demands of any given situation. By disposition they naturally will be:

  • more educator than administrator,

  • more democratic than bureaucratic,

  • more questioning than knowing,

  • more inclined to experiment than to play it safe,

  • willing to delegate decision making to capable subordinates, and 

  • capable of balancing stakeholders’ needs with state and federal requirements.

The Superintendent’s team is comprised of a business manager, director of special services, director of curriculum/instruction/assessment, human resources director, director of technology, executive assistant/data manager, administrative assistant, six principals and two assistant principals.

Key dates:

  • Sunday, March 3,2024: Application deadline

  • Monday, March 18, 2024: Semi-finalist interviews

  • Wednesday, March 27, 2024: Finalist interviews (full day)

The Board anticipates offering its next exceptional leader an initial two-year contract at a starting salary of $148,000-$165,000 and a generous benefits package.

Confidential inquiries can be made to the consultants.

Position Type: Full-time
Positions Available: 1
Salary: $ 148,000 to $ 165,000 Per Year

Equal Opportunity Employer

Washington Central Unified Union School District is committed to maintaining a work and learning environment free from discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, pregnancy, gender identity, sexual orientation, marital/civil union status, ancestry, place of birth, age, citizenship status, veteran status, political affiliation, genetic information or disability, as defined and required by state and federal laws.

Job Requirements

Prerequisites:

  • Licensed as a Superintendent of schools by the state of Vermont or be eligible to obtain VT license.

Essay Questions:

1. Washington Central recently merged from a five-town supervisory union to a single district with five towns. An elementary school is operated in each town. Through lenses of academic opportunities and fiscal responsiveness, how might you engage the board and community in addressing the potential of schools' reconfiguration(s)? 

2. WCUUSD has been working with its community on a strategic plan. It is expected to be implemented starting in July, 2024. One aspect of this strategic plan is a focus on humanity and justice. WCUUSD is committed to "creating inclusive educational opportunities that are relevant both historically and culturally, addressing the impacts of bias, prejudice, and discrimination while building more opportunity for us to thrive rather than merely survive." How might you help the Board to realize this vision?

Superintendent

Neenah Joint School District - Neenah, Wisconsin

The Neenah Joint School District is seeking a superintendent beginning on July 1, 2024, with a base salary range expected to be $190,000-$220,000 (based on experience); other benefits to be negotiated. The Neenah Joint School District is proudly positioned in the heart of the Fox Valley. Serving over 6,700 students, Neenah continues to be a frontrunner in many areas including academics, athletics and the arts. The District is committed to a focus on educational excellence for its students, professional staff and entire community. The Neenah Joint School District consists of approximately 60 square miles. The District has approximately 750 employees, and a general fund budget of $145.5 million. Education is provided in 14 buildings.

In 2020, the District created a capital plan totaling just over $180 million including a passed $114.9 million referendum for facilities and security improvements across the District. The District broke ground in the spring of 2021 and in 2023, opened a new state-of-the-art high school on the west side of the District. The current high school became the Neenah Middle School housing approximately 2,000 students for grades 5-8. Elementary schools host grades K-4 with one 4K school and early learning center. The District also has a Montessori charter school housing grades 4K-6.

The Neenah Joint School District has one of the lowest mill (tax) rates in the Fox Valley area at $6.20 per $1,000 of property value in 2023. This includes the amount from the 2020 referendum. Prior to passing its 2020 referendum, the District had zero long-term debt. It is one of the only Wisconsin school districts with a fully-funded post-retirement benefit for all staff and has offered CPI salary increases to all staff every year for the past decade. NJSD has held a steady enrollment of about 500 students per class for nearly 30 years.

The Neenah Joint School District is comprised of five municipalities including the City of Neenah, the Town of Clayton, the Town of Neenah, the Town of Vinland and the Village of Fox Crossing comprising a total population of approximately 55,000. Neenah, Wisconsin is a beautiful city located on the shores of Lake Winnebago and the most historic of the municipalities. Now home to just over 28,000 people, Neenah was settled in 1835 as a mission for the Menominee Indian tribe because of the river's ability to generate power. Soon, a number of lumber milling operations set up shop, and by 1872, the paper industry joined in and Kimberly-Clark, still an active business in the Neenah community, was formed. 

The Neenah Joint School District continues to serve as host to a number of historical landmarks, thriving businesses and families looking for a welcoming place to settle down. The school system is second-to-none in the area, earning a "Gold Medal" rating in Expansion Management Magazine's Education Quotient review (based on high graduation rates, college board scores that are consistently higher than state and national averages, low teacher/student ratios, continued commitment to funding public education, and strong economic and educational demographic rankings).

The Fox Valley metro area’s business climate has earned it the ranking of third best market for business development among all small metropolitan areas in the nation. Along with outstanding public services, residents here enjoy a healthy and diverse economy, high quality medical care, excellent schools, churches and beautiful parks, various shopping options, and bountiful recreational, cultural and community activities.

The Neenah Joint School District remains, above all, committed to learning, growing and finding better ways to provide the finest foundational life experience for the District’s children. Neenah is a very special place to be!
