[May 09, 2018]   At Illinois State University’s annual “EAF on the Red Carpet” gala, New Holland-Middletown Elementary District 88 Superintendent Todd Dugan was awarded the “2018 EAF Superintendent of the Year” title on Saturday, May 5, 2018.

Introduced by Bloomington Public Schools District #87 Superintendent Dr. Barry Reilly, Dugan was hailed for “branding his district as a leader in curricular innovation and a laboratory of student performance and sustained growth” as well as “extraordinary leadership of the implementation of technology in schools.” In addition, the award credited Superintendent Dugan for his work publishing and presenting on disrupting inequity (socioeconomic and digital) as well as championing for high-quality and innovative curricular offerings for students in rural and high-poverty learning communities.

Recipients of the Superintendent of the Year award are graduates of the university’s Department of Educational Administration and Foundations (EAF) who go above and beyond to serve their school districts. Previous area recipients include Dr. Barry Reilly, Superintendent of Bloomington Public Schools District #87 and Regional Superintendent of Schools Mark Jontry.
