Superintendent Dan Nowak Retires

After 37 years Dan Nowak will be retiring. He only has a few weeks left and throughout this past school year there have been many "lasts". Last week was the Athletic banquet.

A complete article with the Plattsmouth Journal outlines his very illustrious career.

Novak is currently tied with Jack Moles of Johnson County Central for the second-longest tenure as superintendent of any school in the state. Both have been in their positions for 22 years. Dr. Jon Cerny of Bancroft-Rosalie is the dean of Nebraska superintendents with 24 years of service.

The Elmwood-Murdock TeamMates

The Elmwood-Murdock TeamMates chapter is looking for volunteers to be on our board. As a board, we meet four times a year to oversee the organization and make decisions on maintaining the program.

Specifically, we are looking for someone to take on the role of our organization's treasurer. The job requires attending board meetings, sending in treasurer reports, keeping track of our funds and writing checks if necessary. There will be training for this position to help you learn the role.

If you are interested in joining our organization and don't feel like you have the time to be a mentor, joining the board is a great way to get involved.

If interested, contact JoDee Paulsen at Elmwood-Murdock Public Schools
