UPDATE: November 1, 2024: Announcement from the NSCSD Board of Education: Dr. Terry Ward to be appointed Superintendent of Schools

October 11, 2024: Letter from Board of Education President with search update - The North Syracuse Board of Education is approximately halfway through the process for finding our next superintendent of schools. Our search consultant, Dr. Cook from OCM BOCES, has completed all of the focus groups that gathered more specific information from various stakeholder groups, which included students, families and various combinations of staff. The feedback from the groups has been delivered to the BOE and will be used to help formulate questions and provide the board valuable information regarding what is most important to our community as we look for our next leader. We remain on track for an announcement of the successful candidate towards the end of November with a start date of January 1, 2025.
