Mr. Michael Tolley Selected as Northshore’s Superintendent
March 17, 2023
Dear Northshore staff, families, and students:
The Northshore School Board is pleased to announce that Mr. Michael Tolley has been selected as the district's next Superintendent subject to successful completion of contract negotiations. Mr. Tolley will begin in the permanent position on July 1, 2023.
Mr. Michael Tolley was offered the position after an extensive public engagement process including a community survey, focus groups, and Community Forum. In total 27 individuals applied for the Superintendent position and 8 applicants were moved forward for School Board consideration representing high-performing districts from across the nation. The three finalists were from Arkansas, Michigan, and Washington.
In response to his selection, Mr. Tolley stated, “I am extremely honored to be selected as Northshore’s next Superintendent. I want to thank the Northshore School Board for their vote of confidence as well as the many individuals that gave their time and valuable feedback during the selection process."
"As a lifelong educator, I am deeply committed to the success of our community’s children. I look forward to accelerating the great work underway throughout the school district. I am excited to partner with our students and their families, staff, and the broader community to ensure each and every student in the Northshore School District has the opportunity to pursue and achieve their hopes and dreams, particularly those students furthest away from racial and educational justice," added Mr. Tolley.
“On behalf of the School Board, I want to congratulate Mr. Tolley. We were fortunate to have an exceptional pool of highly qualified, equity-focused superintendent candidates to choose from - and he rose to the top,” shared Board President Jacqueline McGourty.
President McGourty added, “Mr. Tolley is an exceptional educational leader with a strong track record of working collaboratively with school leaders and staff to improve outcomes for students - especially those furthest from racial and educational justice. He has the vision, skills, and experience to support Northshore in realizing our commitments to our students now and into the future. The Board looks forward to supporting him as he leads our district as the next Superintendent.”
Please help us in congratulating Mr. Michael Tolley! To learn more about Mr. Tolley visit www.nsd.org

SMS Technology Reminder
Skyview families:
This is a reminder that all students need to bring their school-issued computer to school daily. Currently, too many students are relying on borrowing a device for the day at school and we run out of machines daily.
Please work with your student to make sure they bring their charged computer each day! Said a different way: it's not OK for any student to think "I'll just borrow one at school so I won't bother bringing mine today."
Thank you in advance for teaming with us to make sure all students bring their devices to school daily.
