Activities Director Named

Mike Lindquist, a Delano Middle School art and physical education teacher, is being named as the activities director for Delano Schools.

Mr. Lindquist is uniquely qualified for this position. He has 25 years of teaching and coaching experience, 23 years at Delano Middle School. His coaching experience and experience in the visual arts gives him a broad perspective of the total activities program, which doesn't just include athletics.

In addition to his duties with the school district he has been a very active member of the community as a member of the Parks and Recreation Commission, Downtown Revitalization Task Force, Highway 12 Bridge and Aesthetics Task Force, and other projects.

He will continue as head girls soccer coach for the upcoming season only. The district will be looking for a new girls soccer coach for next year and a head boys track for the coming season.

He replaces Joe Haas who was recently named the assistant middle school principal.
