DILLON \u2014 The Summit School District has opened up the application process for those interested in becoming the district\u2019s next superintendent.<\/p>\n

The district\u2019s board this week also named Isabel Rodriguez as the new Summit School District Board of Education Director. Rodriguez is a former educator at Dillon Valley Elementary.<\/p>\n

Interested individuals in the superintendent position are now able to access and apply for the position at bit.ly\/SummitCoSchoolSup<\/a><\/i>. A link to the posting is also available on the district website, SummitK12.org<\/a><\/i>. The new superintendent will assume leadership of Summit School District beginning in July for the 2020-21 school year.<\/p>\n

The deadline for applications is April 13. By May 1, the board will select finalists to interview. Interviews will take place May 14-15. The board is targeting May 18 for its final selection of the new superintendent. <\/p>\n

In January, Summit School District Superintendent Kerry Buhler announced she will retire effective June 30.<\/a> Buhler has been district superintendent since March 2016. Before becoming superintendent, Buhler was principal of Upper Blue Elementary School in Breckenridge for 13 years. She was a first and second grade teacher in the district for seven years before that.<\/p>\n

In its search to replace Buhler, the board has selected McPherson & Jacobson LLC<\/a>, one of the nation\u2019s leading education search firms, to assist in the hiring of a new superintendent. The search firm has posted the superintendent position on job boards across the country.<\/p>\n

Rodriguez will serve as a board of education director from her appointment on Thursday through to the next regular biennial school election in November 2021. Rodriguez was unanimously voted to complete the seven-member board.<\/p>\n

Since her teaching role at Dillon Valley Elementary, Rodriguez has held positions as an interpreter for Summit School District, a certified facilitator for family leadership training, a member of the Art Board for the town of Silverthorne, a dance teacher and family liaison at Dillon Valley Elementary, and as a program manager at Cycle Effect. Rodriguez received the award for Outstanding Youth Mentor from The Summit Foundation for her work teaching children about Latino culture through traditional dance. <\/p>\n

Rodriguez replaces Bonnie Ward, who resigned in January after four years in the role.<\/a><\/p>\n
