Over the next week, we’ll be highlighting our retiring staff members. First, Superintendent Rodney Delmont, who will retire at the end of this school year. Take a look at our Q&A as he shares memories and advice from his time in education.
What inspired you to begin a career in education?
I enjoyed helping others learn and achieve their goals outside of the school setting, so going into education seemed like a natural choice.
How many years have you spent in education, and what roles have you held throughout your career?
I have spent 29 years in education: 9 years teaching science, 15 years as a principal, and the last 5 years as superintendent.
What led you to pursue the role of superintendent?
We accomplished many great things at Weaubleau, and I knew that as superintendent I could help promote, protect, and continue building on the culture of excellence we had created.
What accomplishment in your education career are you most proud of?
There have been numerous grants, building projects, improvements to buildings and grounds, and policy implementations that I am proud of. However, when I look back over the last 29 years, the differences I have been able to make in students’ lives stand out the most. Seeing students grow into productive adults; hearing former students say, “I wouldn’t have graduated,” or “I wouldn’t have gone to college if it hadn’t been for you”; or simply being thanked for helping them through a difficult time—those are the accomplishments I am most proud of.
What challenges helped shape you as an educational leader?
Being an administrator is full of difficult challenges: student discipline issues; upset parents, teachers, students, or community members; personnel issues; government oversight; financial decisions; building and grounds; transportation; scheduling; and more. Life happens. It’s not so much the challenges themselves that shape you, but how you deal with them. Keeping your faith, maintaining a positive attitude, and handling situations with integrity and empathy help build character and shape transformational leadership.
What has it meant to serve this district as superintendent?
Being able to serve as a principal and superintendent in this district for the past two decades has been a blessing. I greatly appreciate the support, closeness, and high expectations this school and community have provided. I have been able to share in many successes, and three of my children were able to graduate from here.
As you retire, what’s next for you?
My main plans for post-retirement involve spending more time with my children and, especially, my grandchildren. I’m sure a big portion of that time will be spent on the water or in the woods. Other than that, I have no set plans at this time.
Thank you, Dr. Delmont! #tigerstrong
