The Sevastopol School District announced on Wednesday that Randi Anderson had been selected as the new superintendent, effective July 1st, pending the finalization of contract details. Anderson was unanimously approved for the role during Tuesday's special board of education meeting. Anderson was chosen from a field that included Evansville Community School District Interim Superintendent Dr. Steve Lutzke and Randall Consolidated School District Principal and Curriculum Director Ron Rivard. Before her hiring at Sevastopol, Anderson was the Curriculum and Strategic Planning Consultant for Leading Transormative Solutions LLC, following other stops in the upper Midwest, including serving as the superintendent of schools in Shawano, Wis., and Pelican Rapids, Minn. School Board President Lisa Bieri said that Anderson brings the experience needed to help Sevastopol turn from a very good school district to a great one. “In her tenure as an educator, she has established a clear record of managing budgets, resources, and partnerships to improve student achievement. She brings expertise in strategic planning, curriculum development, long-range facility planning, and personalized learning to ensure all students graduate college, career, and community ready,” Bieri iterated. Anderson is excited to put her 30-year career in education to good use in the district. “My goal is to collaborate closely with educators, parents, and community members to ensure we continue to provide the best possible educational experience for our students,” said Anderson. The district plans a community meet and greet opportunity with Anderson in early July after she officially takes the reins from Kyle Luedtke, who is bound for Frederic, Wis. to take on their superintendent position.
