"Fisher said Koeze has “strong credentials” in leadership and education.
“WayPoint is fortunate to have a leader of her caliber to take us to the next level,” Fisher said.
Koeze had been superintendent of West Ottawa Public Schools, where she resigned in 2011.
A few days after her departure, Koeze was arrested and charged with misdemeanor domestic violence involving her husband. 
The case was later dismissed.
Koeze then worked as a consultant for Portage Public Schools, where she eventually was hired as human resources director.
For a time, Koeze simultaneously collected a paycheck from Portage as human resources director and another check from Portage for her consulting work, an investigation by MLive revealed."
