With Kleber's promotion, the position of Director of Student Learning became available. The board announced that JR Ankenbrook, the current Human Resources Director, will transition into this role. Ankenbrook has shown a strong commitment to working closely with students and buildings, making him a fitting choice for this position.

Additionally, the board revealed plans to rebrand the Director of Human Resources position to Chief Personnel Officer, aligning it with the Chief Operations Officer role. David Parker, who previously served as Assistant Superintendent in Blackford County, will fill this new position. Parker brings valuable experience and connections to Northeast Indiana, which the board believes will benefit the district.
