Prior to serving as superintendent, Mr. Dickens worked with every age group in the District, serving as a teacher, assistant principal, principal, curriculum director, and assistant superintendent. Mr. Dickens, also, directed plays at the Waverly High School for 25 years and was instrumental in the development of the Community Outreach and Parent Engagement (COPE) program 7 years ago.

The Board of Education is committed to setting up a thorough and comprehensive superintendent search process and looking forward to prioritizing community engagement and feedback from parents and guardians, students, staff, and the school district community as a whole. During this transition, Bill Hoover, Director of Operations, will serve as interim superintendent. We are very fortunate to have Mr. Hoover; our District is in great hands. The Board of Education will provide updates as it progresses through the search process.
As our school community moves forward, the Board of Education continues its dedication to creating a successful learning environment centered around students, directed by teachers, and supported by home and community.”
Mr. Dickens was also involved in various community service projects, including participation in the Big Brothers/Big Sisters of South Central Ohio “Dance For Kids Sake” to raise money for mentoring programs within BBBS.
