"Mr. Blake Peuse has informed the school board that he will be leaving his position as Superintendent of Schools, effective as of October 8, 2019. He has resigned for personal reasons and leaves on good terms. Blake also expressed that he was incredibly grateful for the support of our staff, board, families and community members, and that he will continue to support the district throughout the upcoming transitions.

On behalf of the board, I would like to thank Mr. Peuse for his exceptional leadership of our district over the past four years. His time in the district was one in which we accomplished some great things on behalf of our students.
