Thank you for your support of the Belvidere Board of Education in this crucial undertaking. Our Board is dedicated to hiring an inspiring, dedicated, and experienced educational leader for Belvidere. We are excited to begin the search for our new, permanent Superintendent of Schools!
The online Belvidere Superintendent Search input survey has closed, having garnered 108 participants. Thanks to all who engaged in our in-person input sessions and completed the online survey. All outcomes will be compiled into an internal document which will guide our consultant, Ms. Helewa, and the Belvidere Board of Education throughout the superintendent search. The results will not be made public in order to preserve the integrity of the candidate interviewing process. We appreciate your support!
Here are the slides from last night's Family and Community Input Session.
Important News: Mark Your Calendars!
The Belvidere Board of Education needs the perspectives of all of our stakeholders as we begin the search for our new Superintendent. Our Search Consultant, Kathy Helewa, will be spending a day in our District on Wednesday, June 4 to listen to our stakeholders in a series of in-person input sessions. Ms. Helewa will be meeting with students, teachers and staff, and administrators during daytime hours, and with our families and community members in the evening. This session will not constitute an official meeting of the Belvidere Board of Education, and Board members will not be in attendance.
We urge our families and community members to meet Ms. Helewa in the Belvidere High School Media Center, from 6:30pm-7:30pm on June 4 to share your thoughts and opinions. Ms. Helewa will also describe and answer questions participants may have about the search process.
For those unable to attend the session, an anonymous online input survey will be available in coming days for all of our school stakeholders. We will publish a link to the survey later this month.
Thank you for your support of the Belvidere BOE as the search for our next Superintendent begins!
