“One school district’s loss is another’s gain.
Duanesburg school superintendent Frank Macri is expected to leave in December to take the helm of Voorheesville Central School District, filling the vacancy left by the district’s four-year chief Brian Hunt, who retired at the end of last year, both districts have announced.
Macri has led Duanesburg schools since January 2018. Previously, he worked as an administrator and teacher in the Lansingburgh Central School District and a teacher in the Salem Central School District.
“Frank brings with him a strong background in community partnerships and educational leadership,” Voorheesville school board President Cynthia Monaghan said. “His experience and unwavering attention to the most important details demonstrate his ability to produce results, and the entire board is excited to have him join our team.”
Macri’s appointment at the Board of Education’s Sept. 9 meeting came after a closed search conducted by Capital Region BOCES, the board said.
The decision to keep the superintendent search under wraps drew criticism, although BOCES did solicit input from the community, reported the Altamont Enterprise. BOCES officials said the confidential search was necessary due to a small pool of qualified applicants.”
