The Superintendents — a Line with Its Gaps Printed

1989 – present

The corporation's superintendents succession is carried here as far as the record reaches — four holders or holdings across thirty-seven years, with the breaks in the line printed as gaps, not filled. Dr. David L. Pruis was superintendent in 1989: the Indiana Court of Appeals' opinion in Jackson v. Union-North United School Corp., 582 N.E.2d 854 (decided 16 December 1991), a case over 1989–93 school-bus contracts, records a board meeting of 24 May 1989 and names him. Between Pruis and 2022 no carrier opened names a holder; the succession for 1989–2021 banks as a named gap, its settlers the board minutes and the state superintendent directories. The corporation's own hearing notice of 7 December 2021 publishes a proposed superintendent contract for the term 1 January 2022 – 31 December 2024 at a beginning base salary of $112,500 — without naming the holder; that name banks as a gap on the minutes of December 2021 and January 2022. Dr. Angela Piazza is superintendent by March 2023 — the Indiana DOE's School Nutrition Program administrative review for program year 2023 names her (contact apiazza@unorth.k12.in.us) — and in the 2024–25 Elementary handbook; her start stands banked from LK-1/LK-2 as March 2023, her end date is carried by nothing opened and is bounded only by her successor's contract start (gap; settler the minutes of late 2024 and January 2025); her present post, per her Indiana Wesleyan University profile, is Assistant Professor of Education and Department Chair there. Keith Burke holds the office now: Marion Community Schools' notice of 6 December 2024 records his resignation there effective 3 January, after ten and a half years at Marion including three as superintendent; the corporation's hearing notice of 2 January 2025 publishes his contract effective 6 January 2025 to 31 December 2028 at a beginning base salary of $129,185.56, the hearing held at the LaVille Jr–Sr High School library; and the corporation's Superintendent's Welcome page names him. One carrier on Burke was quarantined — a Substack profile that misnames the corporation and misplaces Marion — and is used for nothing.
