2024 SSD Superintendent Search

A letter from the Sultan School District Board President, Gigi Gouldner

Dear Sultan School District Families and Community Members,

We hope this message finds you well. We are writing to inform you that our Superintendent, Dan Chaplik, will be retiring at the end of the 2024-2025 school year. We are grateful for his years of dedicated service to our district.

As we begin the process of selecting a new superintendent, the board is committed to being as transparent as possible. We value your input and invite all parents, guardians, and community members to participate in our superintendent search focus groups on October 22nd. Your feedback is essential in helping us choose a leader who will guide our district with dedication and vision.

There will be two locations for the community focus group sessions:

  • Monday, October 22nd, 6:30-7:30 pm, Gold Bar Elementary Commons

  • Monday, October 22nd, 6:30-7:30 pm, Sultan Middle School Commons

There will also be a virtual option for those unable to attend in person:

 We encourage everyone to take part in this important process for the future of our schools. Thank you for your ongoing support and commitment to our students and community.

On behalf of the Sultan School Board,

Gigi Gouldner

Sultan School District Board President
