Dear Sequim Community,

Last week the School Board approved my resignation as superintendent, effective June 30. While I am excited for what’s next in my career, I am writing to commit to you my dedication to prioritizing Sequim School District and its students until my final day of work.

As we begin the transition process, I will keep the staff, students, families and the Sequim community at the forefront of decision making, ensuring that such a critical role is handled with care.

I am thankful for the past five years serving Sequim and its families. As I reflect, I am truly grateful for the opportunity to learn and grow from so many incredible people, also serving our community. These partnerships have played a crucial role in the work we do each day for students and I am confident that they will only continue to grow.

Thank you for your continued support and effort in providing our students a positive and safe learning environment so they can engage, empower and thrive.

I wish each of you the best in your endeavors.

Gary Neal

Superintendent of Sequim Schools
