Family/Community Survey

The Goldendale School District Board of Directors is committed to finding the best candidate for the district's next superintendent. As part of this effort, we invite our community and staff to share their perspectives in the selection process. 

To lead the search, the Board has partnered with Northwest Leadership Associates (NWLA), a firm specializing in superintendent searches throughout the Pacific Northwest. One way to share your input is by participating in a Leadership Profile Survey, available online through March 17th. This survey will help identify the core values desired in the next superintendent. There will be additional opportunities later on in this process and communication will be sent beforehand.
