Dear East Union CSD Patron,
As you likely know, we are working with Grundmeyer Leader Services in the hiring of our new shared superintendent; Superintendent Kuehl will be retiring on June 30, 2026. An earlier message was sent out to patrons of both districts regarding a Stakeholder Survey. This survey will provide invaluable insight and recommendations to the Boards in what to look for in our next superintendent.
If you've already completed the survey, THANK YOU and there is nothing further you need to do.
If you have NOT YET COMPLETED the survey, please do so no later than the end of business on Tuesday, December 30 - the survey will be closed at that time. The survey should only take about 10 minutes to complete. If you have not yet done so, please click on the link below to complete the survey.
https://forms.gle/E1EP6mJ2taYbkEuL8
Thank you for your participation! Additional information regarding the superintendent search will be shared in the coming days.
Respectfully,
Carol Eckels, President
East Union Board of Education
