A NOTE FROM KARL “I am truly honored to be named the next District Administrator for the School District of Maple. This district has a commitment to excellence in and out of the classroom, which I have watched grow into being one of the best districts, not only in the area, but in the state.

Being a native of Washburn I am very familiar with all of the towns and villages that make up the School District of Maple. My goal is to be a visible leader throughout our communities and lead our district, so each and every one of our students find success now and in the future!”

Although Karl will not be joining Maple officially until July 1, prior to that time, he will spend time getting acquainted with the Board, staff and community. His vision, passion and energy for the success of every child makes this transition a bright, new and exciting time. We know you will join us in welcoming Karl to the Maple School District. Go Tigers!
