Tracy Lowder, a Jackson High School graduate, is returning to the area as the new Superintendent at Vandercook Lake School.

Lowder, most recently, spent 8 years as the Principal at Ann Arbor Pioneer High School.  He was a teacher, a coach, and an administrator at Jackson Public Schools for nearly 15 years.  During his time with JPS Lowder coached the Jackson High Boys Varsity Basketball program for 9 of those 15 years.

Lowder replaces the exiting Scott Leach, who has accepted the Superintendents position at Dundee Schools.  Renee Rudolph has been the Interim Superintendent since Leach’s tenure ended.
