Delton Kellogg Schools hires new superintendent

The Delton Kellogg Board of Education Thursday unanimously approved a contract for Kyle Corlett as the new superintendent of Delton Kellogg schools; he will begin his new duties July 1.

Corlett  succeeds Carl Schoessel, who has served as interim superintendent for three years. Schoessel was Hastings Area School  System’s superintendent for 20 years.


 

“Following such an accomplished superintendent as Schoessel will be a challenge, but I have been impressed by the veteran administrative team and a staff that truly cares about every student,” Corlett said.

 

The school board looked for  a superintendent with a strong background in curriculum and a commitment to working with the community. During the interview process and the board’s site visit to Three Rivers to talk to Corlett’s staff, the board learned about his experience in developing and improving curriculum along with his collaborative decision making approach.

 

“The board’s commitment to excellence and strong values attracted me to the district,” Corlett said. “I am excited to build on the district’s current strengths and values to impact the lives of our children. I plan on communicating with the community about the great programs the district has and our work to be the best at everything we do.”//

 

 “My first job is to learn and listen to students, parents, and staff to fully understand strengths and areas of improvement. Improving student achievement should be the driving force to motivate the growth of every educator. I look forward to growing with the staff at Delton Kellogg,” he said.

 

Corlett is an elementary principal for Three Rivers Community Schools, a position he has held for the past two years. Previously, he was a curriculum director/elementary principal and high school English teacher in Illinois. Corlett received his bachelor’s degree from Cornerstone University, master’s degree from Olivet Nazarene University, and is currently a doctoral student at Western Michigan University.
