Posted on April 4, 2016 
WEST PALM BEACH – Four regional superintendents will be named to oversee the School District of Palm Beach County’s new regional offices, as part of District-wide reorganization that will shrink the number of District administrative jobs and move $5.5 million to schools with the highest economic need. They will begin their new roles on July 1.
     This reorganization will move the District from five area offices to four regional offices, shifting additional money and resources to schools, and allowing the District to better align with its new strategic plan. The strategic plan focuses on improving outcomes for students by increasing reading on grade level by third grade, ensuring high school readiness, increasing the graduation rate and fostering post-graduate success.
