The Tecumseh School Board released the following statement on Friday, February 9.
The Tecumseh Local Schools Board of Education is pleased to announce the appointment of Paula Crew as superintendent for the district effective August 1, 2018.
Mrs. Crew has served Tecumseh Local since 2003 when she joined the district as Director of Special Education and Professional Development. She’s been serving as Assistant Superintendent since January 2013 and has been a strong advocate for our students in all facets of education and community involvement. Prior to joining Tecumseh, Mrs. Crew worked in the Clark-Shawnee district as a Special Education Teacher and an Assistant Principal. She has received many accolades for leadership and community service and served our country for six years in the Army Reserves.
“Mrs. Crew has been an asset to our district since joining. Over the past several years, she has worked diligently to provide opportunity and leadership to our young people. This is the right choice for our district and allows us to continue building on our solid foundation of serving our students. I look forward to the board’s partnership with Mrs. Crew in the new school year”, says Peter Scarff, TLS Board of Education president.
Last November, Mr. Norm Glismann, the district’s current superintendent, announced his retirement at the end of the current school year.
The New Carlisle News will have a feature story on Mrs. Crew in the February 14 edition.
