You could hear who the newest superintendent of Southern Door School District is by the beginning of spring. 

The district has put in a lot of work since former Superintendent Chris Peterson resigned in June after three months of being on leave. Before the school year started, the district tapped on Southern Door alum and former Denmark School District Superintendent Tony Klaubauf to fill in on an interim basis for the year while the board conducted its search.

District officials held a focus group on December 12th and accepted survey responses through December 15th. With help from Cooperative Educational Service Agency (CESA) 7, the district plans on posting the superintendent position so candidates can apply in January. It then hopes to conduct the first round of interviews on February 5th and 7th before hosting a final round of discussions on February 12th. District and CESA 7 officials plan to keep the community informed so they can stay updated with the search.
