PICKERINGTON, Ohio (WCMH) – Pickerington Local School District Superintendent Chris M. Briggs submitted his letter of resignation last week, to take effect Jan. 31.
In a letter to the Pickerington Board of Education, Briggs said the resignation was for “retirement purposes.” He has served for the past seven years, joining the district in July 2017.
“It has been an honor to lead this district and I will always treasure the relationships formed with staff, students, community members and the board,” Briggs wrote.
Briggs said he will support district leadership and assist with the transition to a new superintendent. Before his role as Pickerington superintendent, Briggs worked for a number of districts around Ohio, including as regional executive director of Columbus City Schools.
The Pickerington Schools Board of Education will meet at 5 p.m. Monday for a regularly scheduled meeting. Among other agenda items, the board will vote on whether to accept Briggs’ resignation.
