Timeline
Community & Staff Survey
As we begin the search for Jenkintown’s next Superintendent, the School Board is seeking thoughtful input from our community.
We want to hear from parents, staff, students, alumni, and residents who know what our district does well, where we can improve, and what qualities and priorities you value in our next leader. Your perspectives will help shape the criteria used in the search and inform the Board’s decision-making throughout the process.
We invite you to share your feedback by completing the survey linked below. All responses will be kept confidential; the survey is administered and maintained exclusively by the Montgomery County Intermediate Unit (MCIU). Please note that this survey will close on Monday, January 23rd.
Jenkintown is a small, close-knit district with a strong sense of identity, and broad community participation is essential to finding a Superintendent who is the right fit for our schools and our values. We hope you will take the time to participate and help guide this important decision.
The School District of Jenkintown cultivates a safe, inclusive, and dynamic learning community that embraces diversity, nurtures individual growth, and empowers students to excel academically and beyond the classroom while preparing them to thrive in an ever-evolving global society.
