Garfield Re-2 Schools Superintendent Brent Curtice has set a retirement date for June 2020.

“I’ve had a great career,” Curtice said at the March 12 Garfield Re2 School Board meeting, where he announced the decision.

“I’ve been able to lead kids from every level — from teaching to coaching … I have no regrets,” he said. “I’ve been blessed to work with two incredible board presidents and an incredible board. I’ve worked with principals and directors, and there are none better. There are times in your career that you just have to say it’s time.”
