Madison Assistant Superintendent a finalist for the Burnsville Superintendent Position

Blare Kennedy:

Joe Gothard, assistant superintendent of the Madison Metropolitan School District in Wisconsin: According to School Exec Connect, Gothard is the second in command at a " highly successful district." He has a master's degree and a six-year superintendent-principal's license. Previous to becoming an assistant superintendent, Gothard was a principal at both the high school and middle school level.

"He took on one of the toughest high schools in the city and turned it around, basically," said Dr. Kenneth Dragseth, of School Exec Connect. "I got an e-mail from a parent who said he turned their kid's life around."

Dragseth said that all sources described Gothard as a "rising star," who is actively involved in his community and "extremely well-liked" by everyone he came across. Dragseth added that Gothard is "very familiar" with the issues that arise in a diverse district like Burnsville's.
