Meet Superintendent Dr. Ken Wallace!

This year marks Superintendent Dr. Ken Wallace’s 12th year working for District 207. Over the past decade, Wallace said the District has made many advances in the education provided to both teachers and students. Feeling privileged to work for such a wonderfully diverse high school district, he believes that setting teachers up for success is directly correlated with student success.

Wallace said, “I am extremely proud of the teacher leadership within District 207”and the innovative programs District 207 has to offer including advances in the District's science programs. With that being said, he also mentioned, “The Park Ridge Chamber has also been a tremendous partner for District 207 in regards to college, career paths, and internship opportunities”.

The Park Ridge Chamber of Commerce has provided Dr. Wallace with a plethora of new opportunities and he feels being a member has been an extremely rewarding experience. He believes the Chamber leads by example and is appreciative of the involvement of local leaders who are interested in better outcomes for students in years to come.

Dr. Ken Wallace loves to come to the Park Ridge Chamber events. While he mentioned it was hard to pick one event he enjoyed the most, it would have to be the Monthly Networking Luncheons. Dr. Wallace enjoys the luncheons because they are informal, networking opportunities with great food and awesome speakers. Each luncheon is an excellent opportunity to make new connections with new people.
