WCS August 2022 District News
August 5, 2022
Welcome back to WCS for the 2022-23 school year!
Hello,
I’m Jim Brady, your new WCS Superintendent. I’m excited to serve the district and the town that I’ve always called home, to continue the proud traditions that come with being a Hurricane. I hope to bring 25 years of administrative experience from Clinton, Pickaway, Cuyahoga, and Brown counties back to Clinton County to provide a safe and nurturing environment for all students to thrive.
My focus as your new Superintendent will be to support our staff and teachers so that they can support our district’s students as they pursue and achieve their goals and dreams.
Respectfully,
Jim Brady
