Committee honors four staff, announces Embet principal hire
Summary
The committee recognized four 'spotlight' employees for service across the district and announced hiring Kane Beaudry as principal at Embet School; the Martin principal search was reopened and assistant superintendent finalists advanced.
At its April 2 meeting, the North Attleborough School Committee recognized four staff members with 'spotlight' awards and announced personnel updates, including a new hire for principal at the Embet School.
Spotlight awards: Committee members read nominations for four honorees: Hannah Erickson (school nurse at Community School), Alex Hatzberger (high‑school physics teacher and long‑time Region 3 science fair volunteer), Jonathan Sebelia (middle‑school science teacher), and Amanda Sylvester (art teacher). Speakers cited examples from parent and student nominations praising attentive care, coaching and teaching that supported student success.
Principal hire and searches: The committee announced the hire of Kane Beaudry as principal at the Embet School; a formal press release and a future in‑person introduction were promised. The committee also said the Martin principal search did not yield a hire and has been reopened, and that semifinalist interviews for assistant superintendent had been completed with an update possible by the end of the week.
Why it matters: Staff recognitions highlight district culture and morale; the Embet principal hire fills a leadership vacancy at a neighborhood school, while the Martin search reopening and the assistant‑superintendent process will shape building leadership and central office capacity.
Quote: Reading a parent nomination, Unidentified Speaker 1 said of Nurse Hannah Erickson, "Nurse Hannah's communication is a true lifesaver. Her text updates are invaluable." Colleen Endris, a newly elected committee member, said in her introduction, "I'm really excited."
Next steps: The district will issue a formal press release about the Embet principal hire and continue local searches for other administrative positions.
