Greenville schools to announce new superintendent

Jan 03, 2022 2:02 pm

Andrea Macko reports for Porcupine Soup that the Greenville Central School District Board of Education is expected to appoint Michael Bennett as superintendent Jan. 3, taking effect March 7. That comes after current Superintendent Tammy Sutherland announced her retirement in September after 36 years with the district. She first said she'd be leaving February 1, but now will stay until Bennett takes over. “Mike Bennett possesses outstanding experience as a teacher and administrator and we believe that he has all of the skills necessary to continue moving our school district forward,” said Greenville Board President Tracy Young. She said Bennett was picked over 25 other candidates. Bennett has been the assistant superintendent in the Schodack Central School District for the past eight years. Before that, he was the middle school principal in Schodack from 2008-2012 and was a special education teacher in East Greenbush from 1998-2006. “Mike impressed us as the type of individual who puts students first and has the ability to develop strong relationships with the students, school staff, and the community,” said Greenville Board Vice President, Jay Goodman. “We anticipate him becoming an active member of the Greenville community.” Read more about this story in Porcupine Soup.
