Latta Superintendent George Liebenrood is retiring. He issued the following statement:
It is now time, after 46 years of serving, educating and leading others to enjoy the kind of flexibility in my life that will enable me to spend more time with family and friends.

I have had a blessed career working with remarkably passionate and brilliant people in the Latta School District. I am fortunate to have had the opportunity to be a part of the lives of so many young people for so long. It has been a joy of a lifetime to watch a diversity of students of all ages and backgrounds grow and learn as they pursue their interests and passions.
I will be forever grateful to have been a part of the district. There is not a day that goes by that I don’t marvel at your work. I will always cherish the school board, students, families and the Latta community for providing me with the extraordinary opportunity to serve as band director, assistant principal, principal, Assistant Superintendent, and Superintendent.
It has been a privilege to work alongside so many talented Latta administrators, teachers, students, community leaders, volunteers, parents and staff. Being able to witness the numerous innovative and creative ideas unfold during the course of our work to reimagine how students experience their learning has been a fulfilling experience. The tradition of visionary programming for students is alive and well because of the collective efforts of the Latta School District and Community.
