Dear District Staff and Community Members:
The South Holland 151 Board of Education has begun the search process for a new superintendent. We have selected SCHOOL EXEC CONNECT, an educational search firm, to assist us in this process.
We are interested in receiving your input about the new superintendent. We would appreciate it if you would take about five minutes to fill out an online survey that will be available from March 2-8, 2026. Please check the district website on March 2nd for the survey link.
In addition to the survey, if you would like to provide input on the district's strengths, the district's challenges, and the characteristics the next superintendent should possess, the SCHOOL EXEC CONNECT consultants invite you to attend one of the Open Forums listed below.

Findings from the survey, the open forums, and several focus group conversations will be used to develop a New Superintendent Profile that will be reported to the Board on April 6, 2026.
As we move forward, our most important consideration is securing the strongest candidate pool and ultimately the best person to lead our District. To that end, the Board of Education has decided to conduct a confidential search and only the three finalist candidates' names will be announced publicly.
