After a thorough search process for a new superintendent of the Tuckahoe Union Free School District, the Board of Education is pleased to announce that it intends to appoint Ms. Amy Goodman as the district’s next Superintendent of Schools at its meeting on April 21. Ms. Goodman is currently serving as Tuckahoe’s interim superintendent through the end of this school year. After appointing SWBOCES this fall to conduct a superintendent search, the Board of Education gathered community input through forums and surveys then launched a full-scale nationwide search. From a pool of over 30 qualified candidates, three finalists emerged and were interviewed by various stakeholders within the community, including representatives of the teaching and non-teaching staff, parents, and students. Ms. Goodman’s extensive experience in education, in-depth knowledge of pupil personnel, record of innovative approaches and positive leadership made her the clear forerunner. Ms. Goodman is an experienced school administrator having served as the Superintendent of Greenburgh-Graham Union Free School District, Assistant Superintendent of Pupil Personnel for Eastchester UFSD and most recently as Interim Assistant Superintendent for Student Support Services for New Rochelle Schools. She first came to Tuckahoe as Interim Director of Special Education in the summer of 2019 and transitioned to Interim Superintendent in December 2019. As Interim Superintendent of Schools, she has managed the issues relating to the school closure orders, implementation of distance learning, and the other requirements placed on school districts by the State. Additionally, she has worked with the Board on the on-going construction projects, budget development, and labor relations issues, providing stewardship on each of these areas. Her existing familiarity with the Tuckahoe schools and community make her uniquely qualified to lead our District at this critical moment. The selection of Ms. Goodman represents the culmination of an eight month process, but also, the commencement of what the Board believes will be a period of administrative stability for the District in an educational world that will be extremely challenging. The board is confident in her ability to keep our district moving forward, especially given the tough tasks ahead.
