CLINTON, Iowa — Clinton Community Schools Superintendent Randy Clegg plans to take a job at a school district in suburban Minneapolis.
Clegg, who has been the superintendent in Clinton for 12 years, said he is in contract negotiations with the Burnsville-Eagan-Savage school district and plans to make his resignation official in the next few weeks. It will be effective at the end of the school year and he would start his new job July 1.
Clegg said it would be premature to discuss his reasons for seeking a new job.
The Burnsville-Eagan-Savage district has 10,233 students, according to the district’s Web site, more than double the 4,473 students in Clinton.
The Minnesota district named Clegg as their preferred candidate at an April 3 meeting, according to a news release from the district.
Clinton School Board president Jim Tuisl said Monday that Clegg helped lead the district through a difficult financial period when cutbacks were common, but said Clegg’s work in improving the district’s curriculum was his most important achievement.
“In the future when people look back on what we’ve done, they’re going to realize how much he’s done for us,” Tuisl said.
Tuisl said board members knew Clegg had been interviewing for other jobs. He said the board will begin work immediately to find a new superintendent.
