School liaison praises year, notes departure of Superintendent Sandy Fand
Summary
A school liaison reported a successful school year—teacher of the year recognition, sports achievements and upcoming graduation—and publicly noted the departure of Superintendent Sandy Fand; council members expressed appreciation for staff and highlighted building projects.
A school liaison told the East Providence City Council on June 2 that the school year had been successful, with Jessica Deiosi named teacher of the year, multiple athletic accomplishments and an upcoming high school graduation at Pier Stadium.
The liaison also said they were "very brokenhearted" that Superintendent Sandy Fand would be leaving and offered public thanks for her service. Council members echoed appreciation for staff and discussed the importance of maintenance, school building funds and ongoing projects including a new high school and middle school remodels.
Why it matters: personnel changes at the superintendent level and ongoing school capital projects are of interest to families and taxpayers who use local schools.
Ending: council members encouraged the community to attend graduation ceremonies and said they remain engaged with school budget and capital needs.
