Dru McGovern-Robinett, the current head of the special education department, is set to retire at the end of January. Her departure marks the end of a significant chapter for the district, as she has played a pivotal role in shaping the special education landscape. Under her leadership, the department has seen numerous initiatives aimed at improving services and support for students with disabilities.
As the district prepares for this transition, plans are already in motion to hire a new leader for the special education department. The aim is to ensure a seamless transition and continuity of services for students and their families. The hiring process is expected to take place over the summer, allowing ample time for the new leader to step into their role effectively.
The district recognizes the importance of this position and is committed to finding a candidate who can build on the successes achieved during McGovern-Robinett's tenure. The new leader will face the challenge of addressing ongoing needs within the special education community while fostering an inclusive environment for all students.
