You may have never known new Kewaunee School District Superintendent Scott Fritz if it was not for Horicon Superintendent Rich Appel. Fritz says he was happy being a biology teacher and the head football and baseball coach in Chilton when Appel was called up for duty with the United States Army. After a year being the interim principal at Chilton, Fritz found his new career path rewarding enough to follow it to Howards Grove where he would serve as the high school principal. When the superintendent position opened up in Kewaunee, Fritz knew from previous visits to the community as a coach that it was a place he wanted to be.
Taking over for the retired Karen Treml at the beginning of the month, Fritz says he is excited to get the school year going this fall and have things be a little more normal than they have been for the last year and a half. Until September begins, Fritz and his family look forward to getting more acquainted with their new community, including attending Saturday’s Kewaunee Alumnifest at Lakehaven Hall.
