On Wednesday evening, Liverpool Central School District Board of Education voted X-X in favor of approving a voluntary separation agreement with Superintendent Daniel Henner, effective immediately.
This decision was made after careful consideration and was driven by a mutual desire to move in a new direction. This marks the end of Mr. Henner’s tenure with Liverpool Central School District. We believe this change is in the best interest of the school district and our community as we continue our ultimate focus on improving educational outcomes for our students.
The Board tonight also appointed current LCSD Deputy Superintendent, Douglas Lawrence – a steady, trusted, familiar face across our school district – as the new Interim Superintendent of Schools. The Board will be working diligently with Mr. Lawrence and his administrative team to ensure a smooth transition and to provide stability for our school district. Given Mr. Lawrence’s qualifications and substantial experience at Â̾ÞÈËÊÓƵ we are quite confident that there will be minimal, if any, disruption to the school district’s day-to-day operations; and none should be noticed in our school buildings. We are committed to maintaining the high standards of education and support that our students and families expect and deserve.
The Board will promptly begin conducting a fair and comprehensive search for the next permanent Superintendent of Schools. Over the next several weeks, the search for a new Superintendent will start with a Request for Proposals (RFP) for the services of a Superintendent search consultant. We are committed to keeping the community informed throughout this process. Our goal is to find a leader who will build on the progress we’ve made and guide our district into an ever-better future.
We appreciate your understanding and support of our schools during this transition period.
Sincerely,
Board of Education
Liverpool Central School District
