Superintendent

Roaring Fork School District

The Roaring Fork School District is seeking a highly accomplished, energetic leader to be the district’s next superintendent. The district has 14 schools and serves almost 6,000 students in the communities of Glenwood Springs, Carbondale, and Basalt. Each community has a PK-12 school continuum that provides a unique learning experience with academic rigor, deep relationships, a safe and caring environment, whole-child support, and opportunities for all. The diverse ethnicities, cultures, and socio-economic backgrounds of our students create rich educational and cultural experiences for the entire school community.

Students are motivated, challenged, and supported students through instruction rooted in best practices, engaging learning opportunities, and whole-child support. Beginning in kindergarten students have access to STEM, outdoor education, the seal of biliteracy, and other specialized opportunities alongside comprehensive art, music, and physical education courses. They program robots, build tiny houses, climb mountains, solve real-world problems, work in and with the community, and more. Through engaging instruction, a wide range of special courses, extracurricular activities, and equitable access to a world of resources beyond the classroom, our students are mastering skills that will help them achieve future success.

The successful candidate needs to have a proven track record as a culturally responsive and successful leader in a PK-12 district; must be an effective communicator (preferably in English and Spanish); and can demonstrate proven, tangible success in improving student achievement and ensuring equitable opportunities for all students. The new leader will need to live and breathe the District’s mission and commitments  (https://www.rfsd.k12.co.us/en-US/mission-commitments-strategic-plan-00cf10a1)
