Dear Attica Families,
It is with excitement for the individual and gratefulness for his service that I write to you to announce that Physical Education Teacher and Athletic Director Eric Romesser will be leaving the District for the purposes of retirement on September 28, 2023.
I am extremely grateful for Mr. Romesser's service and dedication in his role as Athletic Director since he began the position in 2012. Since that time Mr. Romesser has led the District in providing engaging, educational experiences through athletics for our students. Mr. Romesser was also instrumental in providing guidance in the development and completion of the new athletic complex for the District.
“I’ve been here in some way, shape or form since 1992,” said Romesser. “In that time we’ve had great kids, understanding and supportive parents and some truly terrific coaches - all of which have made my job that much easier and are just a few of the reasons why Attica is such a special place. Looking back, I can honestly say I’ve loved my time here at Attica. It’s my second home.”
As part of the transition plan for the remainder of the year, the District has selected Mrs. Lisa Young to serve as the Athletic Director. Mrs. Young will begin her duties as Athletic Director on September 29, 2023. I look forward to the leadership, commitment, and support that Mrs. Young will provide to our Athletic Department, students and school community in her new role.
-Dr. Kiel Illg
Superintendent of Schools
