North Attleborough Public Schools names two permanent principals; Erin White appointed ALC director
Summary
At a recent district meeting, officials announced DJ Rizzo and Chuck Comay have been appointed permanent principals at the high school and Community School, respectively, and Erin White was named director of the ALC; board members praised the new leaders and invited staff to a school assembly.
An agency official at the North Attleborough Public Schools meeting announced that DJ Rizzo and Chuck Comay, who had been serving as interim principals, have been appointed to the permanent principal positions. "It was kind of a one of the easiest decisions I made in a long time," the official said, adding that both appointees had exceeded expectations.
The same official also announced the appointment of Erin White, a former team chair, as director of the district's ALC. The official credited Meg and Melissa Tuig with leading the hiring process and said Sarah served on the selection committee.
Speakers at the meeting described school tours they had taken with colleagues Carrie, John and Pete, recounting enthusiastic responses from students and staff when Mr. Comay visited classrooms. One board member said students greeted him with fist bumps and hugs, and others praised his combination of high expectations and visible leadership.
The meeting included an invitation to an assembly at the Community School on Friday at 8:30 a.m. so board members and staff could observe the school culture changes cited by speakers. Members also noted positive reports from Martin School and the middle school during the personal-updates portion of the session.
The transcript contains inconsistent spellings referring to Chuck Comay (also shown once as "Mr. Comry"); this article uses "Chuck Comay" based on the initial spelling in the meeting remarks. The transcript also refers to the school as "community"; the article preserves the transcript's wording when a full official school name was not provided.
No formal motions or votes on these appointments were recorded in the provided segments.
