On Tuesday, Quattrone announced that he has asked the Board of Education to renew the appointments of Elementary Principal Heidi Menzel, and her assistant principal Adrienne Laitman.
“We worked hard to develop a pool of qualified applicants. We listened carefully to the screening committee of teachers and parents,’ he said. “In my judgment, the conditions for success are not present for a permanent appointment at this time. It makes sense to me to reopen the search next year rather than make a decision now.”
The search process began in February with focus groups, a survey for parents, faculty and students, a review of 130 applications and follow-up reference checks.
“I am grateful for the work that Heidi and Adrienne have demonstrated over this past year,” Quattrone said. “The faculty has built solid structures and procedures, and they have demonstrated outstanding professionalism. We will work together with the entire community to address some of the needs that arose during the search process.”
