Oakton Street, Niles IL 60714-3024 PH: 847-966-9280 FAX: 847-966-1478 February 19, 2015 Dear Culver Teachers, Staff, Parents, and Community Members As you may know, Dr. Amy Kruppe is leaving Niles School District 71 after 8 years of serving as our superintendent. We have appreciated the service she has given to our District, and we wish her well in the next step of her life. The Board of Education is now faced with the task of hiring a new superintendent. To assist us with this endeavor, we have hired Dr. Harry Rossi and Dr. Gary Zabilka, consultants with SCHOOL EXEC CONNECT, a search firm that specializes in assisting Boards of Education in their search for a new superintendent. They have recommended that we conduct an audit of our District’s strengths, challenges and goals, as well as determine the attributes necessary for a new superintendent to possess in order to be successful in our District. We are extending an invitation for you to assist us with the audit. As an important stakeholder in the district, you have valuable perspectives that we hope you will share with our consultants in one of the focus groups that will be held as follows: Tuesday, March 3rd, 2015 Tuesday, March 3rd, 2015 Tuesday, March 3rd, 2015 Tuesday, March 3rd, 2015 3:00 PM 4:00 PM 7:00 PM 8:00 PM Teachers and Staff Admin/Business Office Parents Open Forum Board Room Board Room Board Room Board Room If you are not able to attend, we would appreciate if you would complete the survey that is located under the “superintendent search” on our District website at www.culver71.net .
