What happened

The board approved a contract for Martin DuBois to be superintendent from July 1, 2026 to June 30, 2029. He replaces interim superintendent Richard Dunham, who retired. DuBois was superintendent of Reading Community Schools and was chosen from six candidates interviewed in public in April.

Why it matters to families

The superintendent runs the whole district and carries out the board's decisions. A new leader can change priorities, budgets and staffing at both schools.
