As you heard earlier this week, Superintendent Tom Boasberg announced he is stepping down as head of DPS after nearly a decade as superintendent. The DPS Board of Education has begun its search for our next superintendent.

Board members are working closely together on this critical decision. The board will discuss the search process at a special public meeting, to take place at the Emily Griffith Campus at 4:30 p.m. July 30.

Choosing a superintendent is the most important responsibility that we as board members have. The search, interview and selection process can be a challenging and complex endeavor. Our families expect for us to be thorough in this work, and we will be.

The selection process will include robust community engagement, including with members of Team DPS. The school district has created a landing page at supersearch.dpsk12.org to share updates about the selection process and answer questions as they arise. We want to hear from you and keep all of Team DPS updated and involved in this process. Visit the site for more information, and share questions, concerns and recommendations by emailing [email protected].

Sincerely,

Anne Rowe
President, Denver Public Schools Board of Education
