Superintendent Rob Scott announced his retirement effective June 30, 2026, telling the board he plans to work through the next six months to complete district priorities and help with transition planning.
Superintendent Rob (Robert) Scott told the Burlington Community School District board on Jan. 12 that he will retire at the end of the school year.
"06/30/2026 will be my last day," Scott said in his superintendent’s report, adding that he plans to spend more time with family and to "play a little bit of golf." Scott described a 36‑year career in education and said the decision was difficult because he enjoys the work and the community.
Scott said he plans to remain engaged through his final day and to support district priorities and a smooth leadership transition. Board members and other trustees thanked Scott for his service and expressed appreciation for accomplishments during his tenure.
Next steps: the board will discuss transition planning and any hiring process for a successor in upcoming meetings.
