7/3/23 - Letter from the Board of Education Regarding the Appointment of Dr. Lisa Brady as Interim Superintendent of Schools

Dear Nanuet School District Community,

As we communicated to you last month, we have been conducting a search for the Interim Superintendent.  Dr. Fox, after declining the position because of her important duties as Deputy Superintendent, did agree to be appointed as Acting Superintendent, but asked that we find an Interim Superintendent as quickly as possible.  

We are happy to report that we have found an outstanding former Superintendent, Dr. Lisa Brady, to serve as Interim Superintendent.  Dr. Brady served as Superintendent of the Dobbs Ferry School District for 11 years before her retirement.  Prior to that, she served as the Superintendent at the Hunterdon Central Regional High School and the South Hunterdon Regional High School in New Jersey.

During her tenure at Dobbs Ferry, Dr. Brady successfully led the accreditation process for the International Baccalaureate (IB) Middle Years Program (MYP) for grades 6-10 to connect with the District’s IB Diploma Program.  She was selected as a presenter at the New York State School Boards Association Conference in 2012, the National School Boards Association Conference in 2014 and the BrightBytes Technology Symposium in 2013.   She was also the recipient of the Lower Hudson Regional Information Center Pioneer Award in 2012 for Technology Innovation.

The Board believes Dr. Brady is not only highly qualified, but will promote the Nanuet culture that we strive for. We anticipate appointing Dr. Brady at the July 5 ^th  Board Meeting as Interim Superintendent.  Her start date will be August 14 ^th .

The Board will begin a search for a permanent Superintendent in late fall with an anticipated start date of July 1, 2024.

Sincerely,

The Nanuet Board of Education

Estimada comunidad del distrito escolar de Nanuet,

Como les comunicamos el mes pasado, hemos estado realizando una búsqueda del Superintendente Interino. La Dra. Fox, después de rechazar el puesto debido a sus importantes funciones como Superintendente Adjunta, aceptó ser nombrada Superintendente Interina, pero pidió que encontráramos un Superintendente Interino lo más rápido posible.

Nos complace informar que hemos encontrado a una excelente ex superintendente, la Dra. Lisa Brady, para servir como superintendente interina. La Dra. Brady se desempeñó como Superintendente del Distrito Escolar de Dobbs Ferry durante 11 años antes de jubilarse. Antes de eso, se desempeñó como superintendente en Hunterdon Central Regional High School y South Hunterdon Regional High School en Nueva Jersey.

Durante su mandato en Dobbs Ferry, la Dra. Brady dirigió con éxito el proceso de acreditación para el Programa de los Años Intermedios (MYP) del Bachillerato Internacional (IB) para los grados 6-10 para conectarse con el Programa del Diploma IB del Distrito. Fue seleccionada como presentadora en la Conferencia de la Asociación de Juntas Escolares del Estado de Nueva York en 2012, la Conferencia de la Asociación Nacional de Juntas Escolares en 2014 y el Simposio de Tecnología BrightBytes en 2013. También recibió el Premio Pionero del Centro de Información Regional de Lower Hudson en 2012 para la Innovación Tecnológica.

La Junta cree que el Dr. Brady no solo está altamente calificado, sino que promoverá la cultura de Nanuet por la que nos esforzamos. Anticipamos nombrar al Dr. Brady en la reunión de la Mesa Directiva del 5 de julio como Superintendente Interino. Su fecha de inicio será el 14 de agosto.

La Junta comenzará la búsqueda de un Superintendente permanente a fines del otoño con una fecha de inicio prevista para el 1 de julio de 2024.

Atentamente,

La Junta de Educación de Nanuet
