Share Your Voice as MPS Seeks Its Next Superintendent

October 11, 2024 | News

MPS is searching for its next superintendent! This individual will lead the district to deliver a high-quality education for students, support families, inspire staff, and enhance the community.

The Milwaukee Board of School Directors has selected Hazard Young Attea Associates (HYA), a national consulting firm, to recruit candidates, guide the search, and gather input from Milwaukee residents at all levels.

You can help! The district will host a series of meetings for students, families, staff, community members, business partners, government officials, and more. Both virtual and in-person meetings will be available.

In addition, all Milwaukee residents are invited to take part in a survey to help develop a profile of the ideal superintendent, draft interview questions, and identify the best candidate. The survey will be open October 4–20, 2024.

Find all the information, survey link, and meeting schedule at mpsmke.com/superintendentsearch. If you cannot attend, email addresses are provided to offer feedback to the search team.
