What schools say about us! 

The Hamilton Southeastern Board of Schools Trustees engaged Administrator Assistance LLC in the fall of 2023 to lead our search for a superintendent for our district. Steve Wittenauer and his team were highly professional and provided a solid, unbiased search. They worked with us to understand the needs of our district, engaged key community stakeholders, provided internal administrative support for central office leaders, and extended solid counsel to the board throughout. We are thrilled with the outcome, culminating in a 7-0 board vote in support of our new superintendent.

Working with Administrator Assistance to identify our new superintendent was a very positive experience.  Dawn Puckett and Betsy Biederstedt were key in identifying qualified candidates and kept our process moving along efficiently.  They understood the needs of our district and were invaluable in helping us navigate what could have been a long and complicated task.  I am grateful for Administrator Assistance's expertise.  They were accommodating and pleasant to work with, and all board members finished the process with a positive feeling.

Administrator Assistance has been instrumental in helping us weather staffing changes in our schools, providing experienced education professionals who often went above and beyond our agreement. “Witt” and his team understand the challenge of finding qualified people who can hit the ground running and keep a school moving forward. I am grateful for their services and will use them again, when needed.

Our partnership with Administrator Associates has been a game-changer for MCAS since the fall of 2021. They have provided exceptional leadership support at the central office and building level, ensuring that we can operate as a high-performing district. They have helped us secure talented individuals for key positions such as CFO, CTE Director, and Pre-K Director. 

Additionally, Administrator Associates conducted a comprehensive staff audit to ensure that our needs were aligned with the number of students, programs, and requirements of the district. This has allowed us to optimize our resources and deliver top-notch education to our students. 

We are grateful to Steve and the team, and would highly recommend Administrator Assistance as a partner for any district.

Rossville was placed in a quandary with the sudden vacancy of our middle/senior high school principal during the first week of April. The secondary school was already deficient in administrative support due to the resignation of the assistant principal in December. We moved a teacher to the assistant’s spot for administrative support. I knew I needed seasoned administrator help to guide the school through the end of the school year.

I turned to Administrator Assistance for support. I was elated to have an experienced secondary school administrator placed the day after the vacancy was created. Mr. John Beeker came to Rossville with extensive experience and prepared to take on the challenges of the middle/senior high school principalship. His professional demeanor and guiding force were much needed to help the school move forward with a solid end to the school year.

Additionally, because of the cantankerous nature of the original principal’s departure, we elicited Administrator Assistance’s help to guide our principal search process. We couldn’t have been more pleased with the services provided by Dr. Betsy Biederstedt. Dr. Biederstedt worked with the stakeholder interview team to review the research-based components of an effective school administration, helped develop and refine candidate questions, and assisted with interviewing candidates. This process developed credibility within the school community. Fortunately, we found a qualified principal candidate and secured an assistant principal.

We have been extremely pleased with the services provided by Administrator Assistance. I would not hesitate to use their services again.
