USD 361 Superintendent

The Kansas USD 361 Chaparral Board of Education is seeking an educational entrepreneurial leader to serve as the next Superintendent. The successful candidate will possess a strong financial background with proven experience in creating and managing district budgets that prioritize student academic improvement while maintaining fiscal responsibility. The successful candidate will bring expertise in designing scalable solutions and driving system change by developing programs, policies, and cultivating staff and district leadership to effectively pursue and achieve student academic improvement goals.

The USD 361 superintendent will have the expertise and experience to advance the district’s new vision and foster a strong culture of continuous improvement to achieve the highest standards of excellence. The Board of Education took the first steps toward implementing this vision by listening to students, teachers, and the communities of the district to hear their concerns and what students need to know and be able to do when they graduate from USD 361. From those conversations, the Board of Education set achievable and aspirational SMART goals for academic improvement to ensure students who graduate from USD 361 Chaparral schools will be well prepared after graduation for a career or college.
