Cedar Rapids and Marion discuss sharing top district executive
Cedar Rapids Superintendent Stephen Daeschner outlined a potential sharing plan with Marion Independent for a single executive officer serving both districts. Either Thomas Micek or William Jacobson could fill the role, commuting about 80 hours monthly, with savings projected between 65,000 and 100,000 dollars for both districts. The plan remains nonbinding and no decision has been made, with talks ongoing and no concrete agreement yet.
