Former Washington Local Schools leader and longtime Perrysburg educator set to guide district after Hosler’s departure.
PERRYSBURG, Ohio — The Perrysburg Board of Education is expected to appoint Dr. Kadee Anstadt as interim superintendent at its Aug. 18 regular meeting.
If approved, Anstadt will begin in the role Aug. 19, stepping in after Superintendent Tom Hosler was named the next chief executive officer of the Ohio School Boards Association. Hosler has led Perrysburg Schools since 2007, becoming the district’s longest-serving superintendent.
Anstadt began her career in Perrysburg in 2005 as a teacher at Toth Elementary School and later held leadership roles including executive director of teaching and learning and assistant superintendent. In 2019, she became superintendent of Washington Local Schools, retiring in July 2024. She has since worked as an assistant professor of education and program director at the University of Findlay.
The district said multiple candidates were considered for the interim role, but Anstadt was identified as the most qualified.
“Dr. Anstadt is a proven and respected leader who is dedicated to our staff and this community,” said Board President Susan Rowland Miller. “We are grateful for her willingness to bring her prior experience and strong record of improving student outcomes to our district.”
During her previous tenure in Perrysburg, Anstadt led initiatives to expand academic interventions and enrichment, improve instructional technology and strengthen student and staff support.
The board will continue discussing a long-term leadership plan for the district at upcoming meetings.
