LASD Superintendent Search Update - Community Survey Results
The Littlestown Area School District (LASD) Board of Directorβs search for the next superintendent of schools is underway! The Board of School Directors approved a contract with DiRocco Education Consulting LLC: Keystone Superintendent Search Service to conduct a confidential search for the next superintendent. The Districtβs website provides information about the search process.
Integral to the process of identifying the next superintendent is the necessity of confidentiality. To attract a wide field of experienced candidates, only the Board of Directors and the search consultants are privy to information about the applicants.
The way in which the community and staff were engaged was through the use of a survey. The Board of Directors greatly appreciated the input of those who completed it.

This information was integrated into the βLittlestown Area School District and Superintendent Profileβ which the consultants are using to recruit and advertise for the superintendent position and to identify interview questions customized to the Districtβs strengths and needs. The profile is here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1p3mXvijyGXDmGK-oea5qnYKpKsFS7LMO/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=115440637139307029927&rtpof=true&sd=true
In addition to the survey results, the Littlestown School District βProfile of the School District and Superintendentβ document is available on our website. Those interested in applying for the position of Superintendent must follow the directions provided in the document, by completing and submitting an application and all required supporting documents by the May 1 deadline.
