One of the first things Brad Willson learned when he took the USD 345 job is that he wouldn’t be moving to Topeka. He’d be coming to Seaman. “It’s a very tight-knit community,” he said. “We’re north of Topeka, but that’s not what this community is built on. This community is built around its schools and considers itself a small town even in the larger metropolitan area.” As he starts the job, Willson says one of his priorities is building a reputation for communication. He’s modeling that by taking the first few months on the job to meet with families, parents, teachers, staff and anyone else with a stake in the district’s mission to educate and develop kids.
