A longtime employee and leader within the Bozeman School District who has helped fill in during the recent absence of the superintendent will retire at the end of December.
Steve Johnson, the districtâs deputy superintendent of operations, will retire on Dec. 31 after almost 35 years with the school district.
Johnson, along with fellow deputy superintendents Casey Bertram and Marilyn King, have taken on the role of superintendent while Superintendent Bob Connors has been on administrative leave pending a performance review by the board.
His years of service to the district will be highlighted in the school boardâs Monday meeting. The boardâs proclamation honoring Johnson describes him as a â28-year old âkidâ when he was hiredâ in 1986.
