Incoming Littlestown superintendent outlines 100-day plan, warns of construction delays and increased security after social-media attacks

The district's incoming superintendent (Speaker 4) told the board they began transitioning into the superintendent role on Oct. 1 and outlined a "first 100-day" plan focused on small, daily improvements and listening to staff and families.

"Practice makes permanent," Speaker 4 said, encouraging staff not to fear mistakes and urging a goal of "being 1% better than the day before." Speaker 4 said they have been meeting with staff, teachers and administrators and will share information with parents, board members and families about district priorities.

Speaker 4 also said a construction project is behind schedule and the district is unlikely to make a planned Dec. 20 switch-over into new facilities. "We are a bit behind, and we do have a plan to make sure that we have as little impact to our [students] as possible, but we are not most likely going to make the December 20 switch over," Speaker 4 said, and asked the community to watch district communications and the website for updates.

Separately, Speaker 4 said administration has noticed an increase in social-media posts that demean or attack community members and described those actions as unacceptable. The district has increased security in response and had "Mr. Lorenz" present for the evening's meeting and named "Mrs. Hecker" in relation to logos and branding work. "Attempts to demean or diminish anyone in any manner... are not acceptable," Speaker 4 said.

The transcript records the announcements and the superintendent's emphasis on listening and learning; it does not include further details on the construction timeline, contractor names, the security staffing plan, or any disciplinary measures tied to the online posts.
