Irondale principal update
Yesterday, it was announced that Amy Janecek has stepped down as principal of Irondale to
provide more attention to her family during these challenging times. Her message to the Irondale community was posted here, with an update from the Superintendent posted here, both available on the Irondale website.
The search for Amy’s replacement will begin immediately and will remain open until the right
candidate is found. Given the current social-distancing requirements, the search will involve a
remote committee of parents, staff members and Building Instructional Leadership Team members, with the goal to identify a new principal to start on or about July 1.
In the meantime, Irondale will receive ongoing attention and support from the District for however long is necessary as the school begins to deliver distance learning to its students. Jeff Ridlehoover, Assistant Superintendent for Instruction, will work directly with Irondale’s assistant principals, deans teachers and staff who remain well-positioned to support student learning for the remainder of this year.
