REQUIRED NOTICES
Budget and Data Information
The Athens Schools Board of Education is beginning the task of searching for the district’s new Superintendent of Schools, as Mr. Joe Huepenbecker has announced his retirement effective at the end of January. He has served the district admirably for eight years in this position.
The selection process, up to and including the appointment of a new Superintendent, is extremely important to ensure the ongoing success of the district. In addition to the Board of Education, staff and community members can play a very important role in the search process. The Board will be assisted by the Michigan Leadership Institute during his process. Dave Killips, Regional President, will lead the search process.
Excellent schools with satisfied students, parents, and staff are assisted by high quality educational leadership. Few aspects of the educational system are as important as the quality of leadership provided by the Superintendent. Therefore, the candidates for this position will be expected to possess and demonstrate many qualifications, skills, and abilities, including the ability to help forge strong partnerships with teachers, students, parents, and community.
