New Ironwood Area School District Superintendent Dan Martinson will be one of the speakers at the opening ceremonies for the Luther K. Wright K-12 Centenial Celebration later on today. Martinson took over from former Superintendent Travis Powell on July 1st. Martinson started as a social studies teacher in Ironwood in the late 90’s – early 2000’s. He worked in Escanaba then returned to Ironwood in 2014, working in several areas, becoming assistant principal and athletic director for the Ironwood Area Schools. Martinson says his first year will be spent getting up to speed in his position. He says Superintendent Powell and everyone in the district has laid great groundwork for the future of the district.
