North Mason School District Superintendent Search
NMSD has been under the leadership of Dana Rosenbach for over 10 years and with her retirement in June of 2025, we’ll be conducting a search for a new superintendent to be in place for the 2025–2026 school year. To facilitate this search, the NMSD Governing Board has contracted with the recruitment firm Ray & Associates.
Our goal is to ensure that NMSD continues to have a leader that exemplifies the mission of North Mason School District, "Together with our community, is to educate, empower, inspire and prepare all students to graduate confident in their abilities to meet life’s challenges and opportunities". Feedback from students, staff, parents, and community stakeholders is an essential part of the search process. While elected school board members ultimately select a final candidate, your input is shared with board members and utilized to help find the candidate that best meets the needs of NMSD. This process will provide opportunities for all stakeholders to provide input into their next leader. Stakeholders include staff, students, families, and community members.
