Parkway School District promoted Central High Athletic Director Mr. Mike Roth to district director of athletics and activities. Effective July 1, 2014, Roth steps in for current district AD Mr. Mike Gohn, who announced his retirement.
“Words cannot express the amount of gratitude that I owe to so many people in the Parkway Central community that have assisted me throughout the years,” Roth said in an email to staff members. “A special thanks to all of the coaches, sponsors, gate workers, scorekeepers, custodians, administrators, and support staff for making the past five years as the Athletic Director at Parkway Central so fulfilling and rewarding. ”
Roth is completing his fifth year as Central’s athletic director, a position he took over after coaching the varsity football team at Parkway West. In the email, Roth reflected on the past five years, giving credit to former Central principal, Mr. Tim Gannon, as well as current principal Mr. Tim McCarthy for their support.
