To Plainville Families:

It is my honor to be joining the Plainville school community as its Superintendent of Schools. I have spent almost 30 years serving public school students in the state of Massachusetts. This includes work as a classroom teacher in Natick, assistant principal in Sudbury, principal in Northborough, and both principal and assistant superintendent in Hopkinton. Each of these positions has afforded me the opportunity to lead and to learn, a combination that has provided me with a strong foundation to begin my work in Plainville. 

When I first saw Plainville’s emblem, I was immediately struck by its simplicity and by its powerful message. Two school houses and two children are represented, with the words “working together” at the forefront. While I can take no credit for the creation of this visual, I am in full alignment with the message that it conveys. My vision for the Plainville Public Schools is one where all community members are pulling in the same direction and collaborating on behalf of all students. I am so looking forward to the year ahead, and to “working together.”
