Press Release From Matt Donkin, Regional Office of Education District #21 Superintendent
As reported after last Thursday’s Joint Meeting of the County Board Chairs from Franklin, Johnson, Massac, and Williamson Counties; Mrs. Lorie LeQuatte will begin her term as Regional Superintendent of Schools on July 1 as all legal requirements have been met. However, with the busy holiday weekend ahead, the ceremonial oath ceremony will take place later next week – the first week of July. You will be notified as soon as possible when that will take place in Benton.
The new Regional Superintendent of Schools will oversee a four-county office that includes 22 public school districts, 3 recognized non-public schools, and over 50 school buildings. Duties include teacher licensure, truancy, serving as GED testing and records custodian, building inspections, detachment and annexations, homeless student services, and others.
LeQuatte replaced Matt Donkin, who is moving on to serve as Superintendent of Frankfort Community Unit School District #168.
