The Muhlenberg County School Board has selected a Christian County native and former Todd County administrator as its next superintendent.
Contessa Orr began her teaching career at Todd County as a special education teacher 22 years ago. She later served as the assistant principal and guidance counselor of Olmstead Elementary, principal of North Todd Elementary, director of federal programs in Todd County and then chief academic officer of Logan County Schools.
Orr says “I will be sad to leave Logan County Schools, but am excited to start a new adventure in an amazing district. A big thank you to the search committee and the board members for giving me this opportunity and to all the people who have already made me feel welcome. I can’t wait to meet the staff, students, families, and community members of Muhlenberg County.”
Orr, her husband and two children live in Elkton.
