News Washougal School District Superintendent Dr. Michael Stromme is leaving Washougal to rejoin the Vancouver Public Schools district.
In a press release sent out this afternoon, the Vancouver district announced that, in July, Stromme will become VPS’s associate superintendent for administrative services.
He will oversee divisions responsible for Vancouver’s K-12 school operations, academic programs, career and technical education, instructional technology and special services.
“I am very proud of the work we have accomplished together over the past two and half years
with an outstanding team of educational professionals who I have been privileged to work with in Washougal,” Stromme said. “We have achieved several milestones in our continuous effort to deliver high quality educational programs and construct new 21st century schools to benefit all Washougal students.”

Stromme, who has led WSD since 2015, and helped that district complete $60 million worth of capital improvements, will lend his experience to the Vancouver district, which is in the process of completing a $563 million school construction and renovation project funded by bond proceeds, a state grant for class-size reduction and state construction assistance funds.
In Washougal, Stromme was responsible for all aspects of district operations and organizational planning processes. Major accomplishments during Stromme’s tenure included voter approval of a levy for maintenance and operations, necessary revisions to school attendance boundaries and collective bargaining agreements with employee associations.
