Rooted in Community. Focused on Excellence.
As we begin the 2026-2027 school year, I would like to extend a warm welcome to our students, families, staff, and community members.
As I reflect on the year ahead, the phrase "Rooted in Community. Focused on Excellence." captures what I hope will continue to define McCook Central. Our district has always been strengthened by the support of our families, businesses, and community members, and that partnership allows us to provide exceptional opportunities for every student. At the same time, we remain committed to challenging ourselves to provide the very best educational experience possible for every child.
The start of a new school year brings fresh opportunities for learning, growth, and success, and we are excited to begin another great year together. We are fortunate to welcome back nearly our entire staff from last year while also adding one outstanding new team member, Megan Stiefvater, who joins us as our Agriculture instructor. We are confident she will be a wonderful addition to our school community.
This year marks the beginning of my seventh year serving as superintendent of McCook Central. It continues to be an honor to work alongside such dedicated educators, supportive families, and an outstanding Board of Education. Together, we remain committed to providing every student with a safe, supportive, and engaging learning environment where they are challenged to grow academically, develop strong character, and prepare for a successful future.
If you have any questions or need assistance throughout the year, please don't hesitate to contact our school.
Thank you for your continued support of McCook Central Schools. I look forward to another outstanding year of learning, achievement, and growth.
