Office of the Superintendent

Welcome back, Central Linn families and students! We are absolutely thrilled to kick off a new school year, and we're more excited than ever to make Central Linn a truly special place for everyone.

This year, our big goal is to build community confidence in a Central Linn public education! We're committed to being a "Destination District" and providing world-class facilities, innovative tools, and real-world experiences for all 1,000 of our students.

Get ready for some amazing things ahead, including:

  • Growing our Central Linn family: We're actively reaching out to welcome even more students, whether through our fantastic in-person programs or through Central Linn Online, which provides flexible and enriching remote learning experiences.
  • Investing in our incredible team: Our staff is dedicated to being the very best, and we're constantly working to support and develop them so they can bring their "A" game to every classroom and every interaction.
  • Celebrating excellence: We're always learning about, promoting, and developing programs that make Central Linn shine in our community.
  • Focusing on instructional leadership: Our teachers and administrators are being trained and supported to be incredible instructional leaders, bringing you the best in teaching and learning.
  • Supporting every student: We're implementing new tools and strategies to ensure every student gets the support they need for both their learning and their well-being.
  • Building a strong foundation: Behind the scenes, we're working on making sure our operations are smooth, efficient, and fully aligned with our goals, including exciting grants and continued collaboration with our new board.

We can't wait to see your bright faces and embark on this incredible journey together. Let's make this the best year yet at Central Linn!
