ICS Board of Governors Announces ICS CEO Resignation The Irvington Community School, Inc. Board of Governors (BOG) has recently accepted the resignation of its Chief Executive Officer Tim Mulherin. Mr. Mulherin joined ICS in 2007 and most recently served as the CEO since 2016. He leaves an exceptionally talented Leadership Team in place as the organization is poised to implement a number of targeted programs and initiatives specific to student support and academic achievement. Tim leaves ICS to pursue his renewed dream and love of writing, most recently publishing his first book that speaks to his passion for the outdoors and the state of Michigan.    As is the case in most organizations, planning for the succession of leadership positions is a proactive and purposeful process. The ICS BOG is currently working through the process of identifying an interim CEO and should have that individual identified on or before August 24, 2021. Additionally, the Board has already begun to assemble the foundation of an executive search committee whose sole purpose is to conduct an effective and equitable search for the organization’s next leader. More information on this process will be forthcoming from the ICS Board of Governors.    Again, we thank Tim for his service to Irvington Community Schools and wish him the best in this exciting endeavor!

-- From Tim Mulherin, ICS CEO After nearly 15 years of working for Irvington Community School, Inc., the time has come for me to move on. A number of events have occurred of late in my personal life that justifiably demand more of my time. This includes having a book published in June that’s requiring more from me than originally anticipated from a promotional standpoint, and I must be in northern Michigan to do the honors.  Yet I leave ICS with mixed emotions. We have come such a long way from when ICS started nearly 20 years ago, and during my time here. Our success is all thanks to the incredible families, students, staff and board members who have joined together over the years to define what a community-focused school is really all about. You have embraced The Irvington Way and made it real. I'm so proud of the outstanding work we have done to develop ICS’s deserved reputation as one of the state's most renowned public charter schools and as a PreK-12 educational gem for the East Side of Indianapolis. And I look forward to the next CEO building upon our many successes and striving for -- and reaching -- even greater levels of academic excellence and student development. It has indeed been an honor and a privilege to serve this very special school community. Irvington Community Schools will remain near and dear to my heart, and I wish you all the very best in days to come.
