Who’s looking for a new superintendent?
Which district is looking for a new superintendent?
Well, the answer seems to be just about everybody.
Graham Superintendent Jim Zerkle has announced an intention to retire this year, making the Champaign County school district the 5th in the area to launch a superintendent search.
Springfield board members meet tonight to discuss semi-finalists to interview to fill their opening.
Southeastern is looking for a permanent superintendent after John Abdella decided to retire last December.
West-Liberty Salem is looking for someone to replace retiring schools’ chief Linda Sparks.
And Mechanicsburg will launch a search to replace Mike Nutter who has taken a position with Green schools.
We also have Clark-Shawnee looking for a replacement for long-time schools treasurer Julie Turner, who will retire in June.
Spring is the busiest season in education hiring as districts firm up their plans for the next school year. I wouldn’t be surprised if we see a couple more searches pop up before the end of it.

Not suprised- Thanks for pointing that out. Mechanicsburg’s exiting superintendent is Mike Nutter. I’ve corrected the entry.
