GRUNDY CENTER — The Grundy Center School Board has begun its search for a new superintendent.
Last Tuesday during a special meeting, the Board met with AEA 267 representative Roark Horn about several options it could use to replace Cassi Murra, who has taken the superintendent position in Knoxville. Among options discussed were sharing a superintendent with another school district, hiring somebody on their own or hiring a search firm to help the Board find a suitable candidate.

Carl Lambertus Nederhoff, 92, of Wellsburg passed away February 12, 2014, at his home. There are no services planned at this time. The family requests that all memorial contributions be sent to the family or Cedar Valley Hospice. Condolences to the family may be left at www.iowacremation.com under “Obituaries.”

    STATE CENTER — Dike-New Hartford saw its dreams of a state dual tournament berth come up two points short last Tuesday as it dropped a dual regional final to familiar foe West Marshall, 33-31.
    The Wolverines (23-5) had fallen to West Marshall 42-34 on Jan. 20.
    The difference in the match was bonus points. Each team won seven bouts in a rare forfeit-free matchup, but West Marshall had four falls while D-NH had three falls and a major decision.
