Polkinghorn To Become White Salmon Schools Superintendent

Rich Polkinghorn is leaving his position as Hood River County School District Superintendent to take the same job with the White Salmon Valley School District.  Polkinghorn has been in the Hood River district for 17 years as a teacher, coach, building administrator, and finally as superintendent the last three years.  Polkinghorn and his family reside in White Salmon, and three of his four children are enrolled in that school district.  He said the opportunity to align his personal and family values with his professional aspirations was an opportunity he needed to take.  Polkinghorn will work with the Hood River County School District board of directors to determine his last day on the job in the Hood River district.  The Hood River district board will discuss the process for hiring a new superintendent during their meeting this Wednesday.
