Community invited to meet new Superintendent

Several events designed to offer opportunities for families and others in the community to meet new Superintendent Andre Rudolph are scheduled for the coming weeks.

The first is a tailgate hosted by Rudolph before Friday’s home football game (Aug. 29).

The tailgate will begin at 5 p.m. and conclude just before 6:30 p.m. in Lima Senior High School’s eastside parking lot. The Spartans take on Findlay High School, with kickoff at 7 p.m. in Spartan Stadium.

People are invited to stop out to meet and speak with Rudolph, who took over as superintendent earlier this month. The evening will include snacks, games and other activities.

Afternoons with Andre will be one-hour, meet and greet sessions held at different schools around the district. These will be informal, with opportunities to get to know Rudolph and have one-on-one interaction with him. Light refreshments will be available.

Below is the schedule:

Thursday, Sept. 4: West Middle School, 3 to 4 p.m.

Thursday, Sept. 11: South Science and Technology Magnet School. 1 to 2 p.m.

Thursday, Sept. 18: Lima Senior High School, 5 to 6 p.m.

Additional events are still to be determined.
