Last night at our regularly scheduled Board of Education meeting, the Board unanimously selected Dr. Dan Kania as our 26/27 Superintendent. Dr. Kania will officially begin his role as our next Superintendent on July 1, 2026.
“I’m both thrilled and humbled for the opportunity to continue serving our district. We have the absolute best teachers and staff around and I couldn’t be more proud to serve as our next superintendent. My family and I have loved Union from the day we moved here 10 years ago and I can’t imagine living anywhere else. I thank the Board for their trust in me and I can’t wait to continue being part of the amazing work we are doing here in Union. #Uproud”
~ Dr. Dan Kania
The Board received 11 applications for the superintendent position and then the Board narrowed that candidate pool down to six to interview. The interviews were conducted in-district at Central Office last week on 10/8. The interview process consisted of three different interview teams. There was a parent team, a building staff team and a director/supervisor team. There were a total of 46 parents/staff who participated in the interviews. Each of these individuals ranked and provided specific feedback to our Board for review and consideration at the conclusion of the interviews.
“On behalf of the Board of Education, we are very pleased to know Dr. Kania will be leading our district next school year and beyond. The Board has the utmost confidence in Dr. Kania to lead our district in a manner that can make all of us proud. We thank Dr. Mabe for all he has done for our district and wish him all the best in retirement. The future for #unionrxi continues to be bright!”
~ Dr. Virgil Weideman, Board of Education President
Congratulations to Dr. Kania!
