Dear MTSD Parents, Guardians, Students, Staff and Community:   

The search for our next Superintendent is moving forward, and we appreciate your continued interest and support in this important process. While the application period remains open until February 3, the Board is preparing to begin reviewing candidates and scheduling interviews in the coming weeks. 

Community Input 

As we’ve shared before, community input is a vital part of this process. Over the past week, the Chester County Intermediate Unit (CCIU), our search partner, held focus groups with a wide range of audiences—including school administrators, faculty, support staff, parents, high school students, and community members—to gather valuable perspectives on the qualities and priorities most important for our next leader. 

If you were unable to attend a focus group but would still like to share your thoughts, we invite you to complete a brief survey by Sunday, February 9: 

Superintendent Search Survey

Your feedback will be collected confidentially by the CCIU and shared with the Board in a way that highlights common themes across all audiences. These insights will help guide our interview process and shape the profile of the leader best suited to serve our district.  

Next Steps 

In the coming weeks, the Board will begin screening applicants and interviewing the most qualified candidates. We remain committed to a thoughtful and thorough process and anticipate selecting our next Superintendent by early spring. 

Thank you for your engagement and trust as we work together to find the right leader for our schools. Your voice is an essential part of this process, and we appreciate your partnership in shaping the future of our district.  

Sincerely,     

Board of School Directors   

Manheim Township School District
