Teachers and other staff members have returned to their respective schools for in-service days over the last two weeks for the upcoming year. Tuesday will also be the first day of school for Dr. Kevin Krutzik of Southern Door and Randi Anderson of Sevastopol, who both began their roles as superintendent for their districts on July 1st. Jesse Brinkmann is beginning his third year at the helm of Algoma School District and has had to toggle between bidding out projects associated with its recently passed referendum and his other duties as superintendent. He says there is a lot of excitement in the district to get the school year underway.

Sturgeon Bay School District Superintendent Dan Tjernagel is the dean of the administrators in Door and Kewaunee counties when it comes to experience as he gets ready for year number 11. He hopes teachers and students get off on the right foot on Tuesday morning.
