The Littlestown Area School Board has approved Dr. Timothy Mitzel and Dr. Judith Berryman to lead the school district for the next five years. Both contracts begin on October 1.
This announcement comes after a thorough four-month superintendent search process conducted by Keystone Superintendent Search Service lead by Mark D. DiRocco, Ph.D. and Connie R. Kindler, M.Ed. The search involved securing a strong pool of candidates who would align with the priorities and beliefs of the district and be able to have a smooth transition into the new role. The Superintendent search began in early 2024 by collecting stakeholder information via a survey. From the applicants, the board the identified candidates to interview and the process yielded three finalists with Dr. Mitzel being selected as the Superintendent. The first order of business for the new LASD leadership team will be to select a High School Principal to replace Dr. Berryman. That process will begin immediately. Please join us in congratulating both Tim and Judy, as they get ready to begin their leadership journey here at Littlestown.

So, why is Littlestown so successful? We stand out in three key areas:
LASD students are SPECTACULAR! Our students understand the value of an overall quality education is based upon many factors, not just one spot in time. They take full advantage of the many educational opportunities they are provided.
LASD has many quality parents, grandparents and community members who are dedicated to not only their children and grandchildren but all children in the district. The supportive nature of the LASD community as seen both in and out of the classroom is remarkable.
LASD professional, support and administrative staff alike are some of the most hardworking, dedicated and remarkable individuals to be found in the Commonwealth. Together they make sure the students are safe, secure and well educated to prepare them for future success.
With you, we are Thunderbolt Proud! More to come…
