Altamont School Board Announces Administrator Plans Published on December 15 2020 10:09 am Last Updated on December 15 2020 10:09 am Written by Greg Sapp
Upcoming changes in the administrative setup for the Altamont school district were announced by the school board Monday.
Board President Shelly Kuhns said the changes are being prompted by the hiring of a different superintendent before the end of the school year, and the pending retirement of high school principal Jerry Tkachuk.
Board members heard that some 20 people have indicated interest in the superintendent s job. Current superintendent Steve Mayerhofer will not be returning after this school year. Kuhns said the Illinois Association of School Boards will review the applicants and develop a list of candidates for the Board to consider. She said they hope to start interviewing candidates the second week of January.
A NEW bakery and patisserie has opened its doors in Cirencester. Knead, in 12 Blackjack Street, opened to the public on Tuesday. The bakery specialises in classic patisserie with a modern twist, sourdough pizza, breakfast pastries and freshly made bread as well as much much more. The idea was started when three Michelin star trained pastry chefs came together to create Michelin quality desserts and baked goods for homes and dinner parties. Kris Biggs is manager of the bakery. He is joined by director John Hawes, Liam Leonard and Alex Janes. No bakery in Cirencester currently bakes on site, but that is set to change at Knead.
