NRHEG Schools Superintendent Dr. Dennis Goodwin has announced his resignation, asking to be released as of June 30. Action will be approved at tonight’s (June 15) board meeting.
Dr. Goodwin had little comment about his action or its relation to the failure of the recent bond referendum.
“I’ve enjoyed the last two years here a great deal,” he told the Star Eagle. “I’m moving in order to be closer to my children and grandchildren.”
Goodwin has accepted a position in Arizona.
NRHEG school board chairman Rick Schultz told the Star Eagle, “We will probably be contacting the Minnesota School Board Association for assistance in acquiring a (temporary) replacement.”
A work session will be called in which the board will decide what action to take. The actual search for a permanent replacement will be discussed at that time.
“Of course we’re interested in finding someone who wants to stay here,” Schultz said.
Look for more details to be revealed at tonight’s board meeting and published in this week’s Star Eagle.
