Change in Regional Boundaries for Regions 1 & 3 Coming July 1, 2020

Effective July 1, 2020, the Interstate 35 school district will be reassigned from Region 1 to Region 3 in our agency service territory. This move is intended to enhance teaming opportunities for staff in Region 3 by placing I-35 in a service area with more districts since I-35 is in closer proximity to Region 3 districts.  

As a result of this reassignment, the following regional director assignments will be modified: 

• Susie Bentley will be the regional director for I-35. 
• Dave Wood will be the regional director for Pleasantville. 
• Tinna Walberg will be the regional director for Winterset. 
• The time Amy Wichman has spent supporting Winterset and I-35 will be reallocated centrally to support agency work in curriculum, instruction and assessment. 

We anticipate reassigning I-35 will have minimal impact on staff assignments. In the next few weeks, regional directors will be reaching out to districts and staff who serve those districts, and RDs will work on transitions in the spring. If you have any questions, contact your regional director.
