In 2023 the district was searching for a superintendent. Robert Beskow of the Hometown Register stated that "many in the community [were] airing their frustrations" when the board of trustees did not select Amy Dixon, a principal and administrator, for the position; Beskow described her as "a popular choice". [4] By November, of that year Dixon became the superintendent of Harrisburg Unit District 3. [4]
