Dear Culver Teachers, Staff, Parents, and Community Members
As you may know, Dr. Amy Kruppe is leaving Niles School District 71 after 8 years of serving as
our superintendent. We have appreciated the service she has given to our District, and we wish
her well in the next step of her life.
The Board of Education is now faced with the task of hiring a new superintendent. To assist us
with this endeavor, we have hired Dr. Harry Rossi and Dr. Gary Zabilka, consultants with SCHOOL
EXEC CONNECT, a search firm that specializes in assisting Boards of Education in their search for a
new superintendent. They have recommended that we conduct an audit of our District’s
strengths, challenges and goals, as well as determine the attributes necessary for a new
superintendent to possess in order to be successful in our District.
We are extending an invitation for you to assist us with the audit. As an important stakeholder
in the district, you have valuable perspectives that we hope you will share with our consultants
in one of the focus groups that will be held as follows:

If you are not able to attend, we would appreciate if you would complete the survey that is
located under the “superintendent search” on our District website at www.culver71.net . We
are looking forward to your participation in this phase of the search either in a focus group or
through written feedback.
Thank you for taking part in this important undertaking.
Sincerely,
Matt Holbrook, Matt Glancy
