JEFFERSON â Mark Rollefson has stood at the head of the classroom and at the helm of two district schools, and, for the last four years, he had headed up the Jefferson school district as a whole.
The veteran educator, who has logged almost 32 years in education â the last 23 of those in administration â announced Thursday afternoon that he would be retiring at the close of this school year. He will serve out his current contract, which runs through June 30.
During his time in administration, Rollefson has helped lead countless initiatives, from the districtâs state and nationally recognized character education initiatives to trauma-informed teaching efforts, and, most recently, the lightning-swift transition to virtual learning and all of the other changes necessitated by the COVID-19 pandemic.
