Superintendent’s Message

It is my distinct honor and privilege to serve as the Superintendent of North Providence Public Schools. We are very fortunate to have a community that is extremely supportive of public education. In addition, we are quite proud of the numerous academic, co-curricular and athletic programs that our school system provides to all of our students. These programs are  supported by talented teachers, administrators, and support staff members across the district. Our focus every day is to work together as a cohesive team to provide excellence in education, including high quality instruction in every classroom that is rigorous, engaging, and personalized for each student. Our goal as a school system is to prepare our students for career and college success so that all students can thrive as productive members of the 21st century global marketplace. We wish much success to all North Providence students and families..
