Data Manager
My name is Heather Kruszewski, and I am the new Data Manager for Coal City Schools. Although I only started with the district in April 2022, I have been involved with Coal City Schools for over 12 years. Both of my children attend/attended Coal City schools. My son, Caleb, is a class of 2022 graduate. My daughter, Chessa, is currently a Senior at CCHS. I have been an active member of the Coal City Music Boosters going on 9 years now, 5 of which I served as secretary.
I have over 24 years of experience in the Information Technology field, where I spent my last 14 years at a corporate office, primarily focused in BI (business intelligence) design and development, as well as ERP (enterprise resource planning) system administration. I am looking forward to using my skill sets within the school district environment, and I'm extremely excited to be working so close to home with a fantastic group of people!!
