Being the superintendent of Randolph Central School is possibly the best job of my career. Look at what I’ve gotten to do already this week :

• Meet with the BOE to ratify the support staff contract which is 18 months past it’s time.
• Interview, select and offer our library media specialist job to the successful candidate.
• Problem solve with the admin team and union leadership on a number of interesting issues.
• Collaborate on our building project, listen, discuss and decide about current plans for space and what we hope to do now. Looking at building plans and listening to my colleagues’ dreams and hopes for the space.
• Watch our girls’ basketball teams win, both JV and Varsity.
• Join parents and our 8th graders as they attend a thorough, informative and caring presentation by our middle school counselor about the next four years of high school.
• Examine budgets to understand where we are and where we’re going.

It’s incredibly energizing to enter the district and then get to listen and learn, followed by discussion and decisions about our future in real ways that will have a lasting impact for our faculty, students and staff.

Okay, so full disclosure, could have lived without the decision making part of the job that included delaying school two hours this morning due to ice, failing to operate the computer notification system swiftly, and calling the delay much later than I intended. But even that was rewarding because I now know how to do it and I got lots of positive feedback from staff about the way in which I communicated our future expectations. This is the best job in the world. Thank you Randolph–for selecting me and welcoming me with open arms.

Your superintendent!
