State of Oak Ridge Schools
The featured speaker for the February 1 program is Dr. Bruce Borchers, Superintendent of the City of Oak Ridge Schools. Dr. Borchers started his education career as an elementary physical education teacher in the Sioux City, Iowa, Community School District. He also has worked as an interim assistant principal and guidance counselor in Iowa City, Iowa, as assistant principal and principal in Mankato, Minnesota, and as associate superintendent of secondary schools for the Anoka-Hennepin, Minnesota, School District. Prior to joining the Oak Ridge Schools, Dr. Borchers was the Superintendent of the Rockwood School District from 2010 to 2013.
Dr. Borchers earned a Ph.D. from the University of Minnesota, master's degrees from Wayne State College and the University of South Dakota, and a bachelor's degree from Morningside College.
Between the unusual events at the high school in December and ground breaking of the state-of-the-art Ben Martin Track, Dr. Borchers will undoubtedly have much to share.
