GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — Ron Caniff, Kent Intermediate School District Superintendent says he’s retiring at the end of the calendar year.

Caniff sent a letter to the Kent ISD board Monday saying his resignation would be effective Dec. 31.

The letter (PDF)reads in part, “The timing of my departure … will allow us to get what will assuredly be a challenging start-up to the school year behind us, and hopefully by the time I leave a sense of normal operations returns with the potential advances occurring in the development of a COVID-19 vaccine

After being an educator for some 36 years, the last five of which spent as superintendent of Kent ISD, Caniff called the job “a true honor and the highlight of my career.”

He joined the ISD in July 2015 after serving as the superintendent of Grandville Public Schools
