LTHS Administrator Honored With IASPA New Member Award

LOCKPORT, IL — Lockport Township High School's Dr. John Greenan, Assistant Superintendent of Personnel, was honored with the New Member Award for the 2025–2026 school year by the Illinois Association of School Personnel Administrators during its annual conference in Naperville, the District shared in a news release.

The IASPA New Member Award recognizes emerging leaders in school personnel administration who demonstrate early impact, innovation, and commitment to the profession.

"Dr. Greenan’s selection reflects not only his professional expertise, but also his people-centered approach to leadership and culture-building at Lockport Township High School District 205," the District said.

Greenan's career started in the classroom and he has served as a principal and district leader.

"In his first year as Assistant Superintendent of Personnel, Dr. Greenan has quickly made a meaningful impact—often through work that happens quietly, behind the scenes," the District said.

Greenan has launched the Super Staff Award at LTHS; created the Porter Connection newsletter for staff; hosted staff listening sessions; enhanced the Teacher Induction Program, produced a welcome video, and planned and hosted the annual Homecoming staff and family celebration, according to the District.

"I feel very honored to be recognized by the Illinois Association of School Personnel Administrators (IASPA) with this year's New Member Award. Joining IASPA has been one of the highlights of my professional career, as I have been able to meet and collaborate with an outstanding, supportive group of personnel administrators throughout the state," Greenan said in a release. "I am proud to accept this award on behalf of our school community at Lockport Township High School. If I could not highlight the great support, work, and accomplishments of our Board of Education, staff, and students, there would be no award. I would also like to especially thank Frankie Hatley (Personnel Specialist) and Christine Mildice (Personnel Assistant) for being great teammates in our work together in the Personnel Office."
