Bargo hired at Livingston

Kennith Bargo was named the new superintendent of Livingston County Schools at Monday's school board meeting at Smithland.

Bargo, a former teacher, assistant principal and football coach at Crittenden County, will assume leadership of the 1,400 student school system on July 1, filling the void left by retiring superintendent Jack Monroe.

"I consider it a real honor to be a part of this outstanding school system," commented Bargo. "While at Crittenden County, I always kept a close eye on Livingston County, knowing that good things would be going on here."

Bargo and his wife Suzie have two children and one grandchild. They plan to relocate to the area in the near future.
