Maroa-Forsyth District Superintendents


The position of District Superintendent was created with the formation of the Maroa-Forsyth Unit School District in 1948. Orginally, the same person who was the high school principal also functioned as the superintendent.

The 1962-63 school year is the first year in which the positions of superintendent and high school principal are separate.
