District 94 proposes new organizational chart, renames cabinet positions and reshapes administrative roles
Summary
Superintendent proposed a restructured administrative chart effective July 1, 2025 that eliminates assistant principal titles, elevates some roles to cabinet-level executive director titles, creates new executive-director positions and changes the assistant director of special education from 12 to 10 months.
Superintendent and staff presented a proposed administrative reorganization that would take effect July 1, 2025, renaming and realigning several positions, eliminating assistant principal titles in favor of elevated cabinet roles and adjusting work calendars for at least one special education administrator.
What was proposed: The superintendent said no new administrative positions would be added but several titles and reporting lines would change to “flatten” the organization. Assistant principal positions would be eliminated and job responsibilities elevated to cabinet-level roles titled executive directors. The district proposes new executive‑director positions, including executive director of operations and safety; executive director of professional learning and pathways; director of culture and climate; director of multilingual and multicultural services; and director of post‑secondary success.
Other changes: The assistant director of special education would move from a 12‑month to a 10‑month calendar beginning next school year. The activities director position would shift from an administrative division and be structured as a licensed, stipend-based role similar to the assistant athletic director (two-period release plus stipend). The technology area would be split between infrastructure/hardware and student‑information/PowerSchool responsibilities.
Rationale and next steps: The superintendent said the changes are designed to reduce layers of management, clarify responsibilities and align staff to expanded dual-credit and pathway goals. Board members asked clarifying questions about potential silos in technology, oversight of MTSS (multi-tiered system of supports) under the Director of Culture and Climate, and placement of family outreach under that director. The superintendent said the reorganization will return for formal approval at the Feb. 18 Board meeting.
