112 Seeks Input in Superintendent Search

Input from parents, staff and the community at large will be part of the search for a new superintendent in North Shore School District 112 to replace retiring Superintendent David Behlow, according to an email from the District.

These small focus groups are open to anyone who wants to participate to learn what the community believes are the important traits a new leader should possess. They will be conducted by the search firm hired by the District to help find a new superintendent.

The initial meeting will be at 1 p.m. Tuesday at Ravinia School followed by gatherings at 5 p.m. Oct. 10 at Sherwood, 6 p.m. Oct. 16 at Oak Terrace in Spanish and an hour later in English, 6 p.m. Oct. 17 at Northwood and 11 a.m. Oct. 18 at Edgewood.

For those interested in early childhood education, there will be sessions in both English and Spanish at 2 p.m. Oct. 27 at the Green Bay Road School followed by a 4 p.m. gathering there geared to community members without children in school.
