UNION GROVE — Thomas Johnson, the former principal at Union Grove Elementary School, has been named the new superintendent for the Union Grove Union High School.
Selecting Johnson
The District Board of Education has announced the veteran in education and administration will begin his role on July 1, 2023.
The board worked with CESA 7 to conduct a thorough search process. It included soliciting input from stakeholders and conducting interviews with a pool of highly qualified candidates. Additionally, it involved an advisory committee represented by staff and administration.

I am very excited to join the incredible team at Union Grove High School. It is an honor to have the opportunity to serve the students, families, and staff at UGHS, and I look forward to strengthening the positive relationships I have cultivated within this great community. Through my collaborative leadership style, I will work diligently to build on the tradition and culture that has earned Union Grove High School its successful and positive reputation.
