Superintendent Search Information

A search is being conducted for a new superintendent. The Minnesota School Boards Association (MSBA) has been contracted to guide and provide assistance throughout the process.

The School Board met on November 19, 2025, to plan the search. An important part of the search process is gathering input for the Board to consider as it moves forward in selecting the new superintendent, and here are two ways you can engage in the search process:

SUPERINTENDENT SEARCH SURVEY

An anonymous public survey is now available for all interested parties to fill out between November 25 – December 17, 2025. Click here to complete the Superintendent Search Survey. Hard copies of the survey are also available at the district office in Virginia and Mountain Iron. Please return any completed surveys to the same location by December 17 so they can be included with the online survey results following the survey deadline of December 17, MSBA will summarize and provide an overview of the responses for presentation to the School Board. 
 

VIRTUAL QUESTION/ANSWER SESSION WITH MSBA

To ensure all constituents in the district have access to accurate information regarding search processes and expectations, MSBA will host a virtual Q&A with MSBA at 4:00pm on Thursday, December 11.  Click here to join the Zoom session at that time. All interested individuals are invited to attend the live session; however, to accommodate busy schedules as well as ensure access to search information, the session will also be recorded and made available on the district website for the remainder of the search.

Questions about the search process can be submitted anonymously in advance by clicking here: Submit Questions About the Search.  The deadline for submittal of advance questions is Thursday, December 11, at noon. Questions may also be submitted during the session using the chat box.

We hope you can join MSBA for this overview of the upcoming search process. If you are unable to join us live, please visit the district website to watch the recording at a later date. Contact Lee Warne, MSBA Executive Search Team, at  507-828-2468 with any questions. Thank you for your interest and participation in the superintendent search process!
