February is Minnesota School Board Recognition Month. At our meeting Tuesday evening, the Lake Crystal Wellcome Memorial School District recognized our Board members who selflessly give their time and energy in support of high-quality public schooling for our youth. School board members in our District are entrusted by this community with responsibility!
School boards are charged with making decisions that can sometimes be quite difficult or require sifting through a great deal of information. They also bear responsibility for developing a vision that will guide the school district for years to come. Through collaboration as a team, and with school district staff, their governance and advocacy are building the future of education in Minnesota.
We’re encouraging all members of the community to thank a board member. Please thank them for their time and playing a critical civic role that helps form the bedrock of our democracy — public education. As a crucial bridge between the local community and the school district, their efforts are instrumental in helping all of us realize the hopes and dreams we have for the children of our community.
The men and women serving Lake Crystal Wellcome Memorial are: Mike Maurer, Sara Rose, Linda Leiding, Ryan Jones, Kelly Hoeft, Kari Paul, Josh Sargent.

The Lake Crystal Wellcome Memorial School Board is searching for a new superintendent for the next school year. The board is asking district stakeholders to complete this short survey to help them make an informed decision on what skills and focuses the new superintendent should have. Responses can be completed using either the online survey or completing a hard copy returned to the District Office in a sealed envelope.
