The Medfield School Committee is seeking a leader of great
integrity capable of building upon a long-standing tradition
of trust, excellence and collegiality in one of the premier
school districts in Massachusetts. The new Superintendent
will lead a highly effective district team with strong public
support for education, an efficient, flexible budget and high
expectations for exceptional student performance. The
district is comprised of three elementary schools, a middle
school and one of the best high schools in Massachusetts.
The system serves 2,860 students with a faculty of over 200
teachers and a budget of 32.6 million dollars.
Medfield is located in the MetroWest area of Massachusetts,
approximately one hour from Boston or Providence, RI
by car or commuter rail. The remarkable reputation of its
school system along with location, easy access to major
roads, airports, shopping, arts and culture, is what first
attracts people to Medfield. Its historic roots, strong sense
of community and tradition and great pride in the town and
school district is the reason people stay. It is not surprising
that Boston Magazine named Medfield one of the top 20
school districts in Massachusetts. The new leader will replace
a retiring Superintendent and have the rare opportunity to
build on a solid academic and fiscal foundation and bring
Medfield into an envisioned future of strategic growth and
innovation.
The new educational leader of the Medfield Public schools
will:
• Be a person of great integrity who can inspire trust at all
levels in the school system and community;
• Be committed to an active engagement of the entire
Medfield community;
• Be politically astute in dealing with current educational
issues and in implementing strategies of growth and
change;
• Be a skilled communicator and listener who interacts
well within the school district and values an involved,
active community;
• Work effectively with all groups and constituencies
including municipal staff and volunteers;
• Develop a commonly-owned global vision for education
and effectively guide an implementation of that vision in
a thoughtful and well researched manner;
• Demonstrate capability of building an effective team
structure to support excellence and strategic growth;
• Be an active leader with a passion for education and
strong connections to state and national educational
authorities;
• Demonstrate a great sense of inner strength and
patience;
• Have the ability to recognize and build on current
strengths;
• Have experience in managing complex organizations with
particular knowledge of municipal finance and budgeting
processes including strategies for increased revenues;
• Be well versed on current educational initiatives and
think strategically about their implementation;
• Have a deep appreciation for the children that make up the
student body and keep them in mind when deliberating on
decisions that impact the educational experience.
Medfield is offering a highly competitive salary and benefit
package. A current license as a Superintendent of Schools
in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts must be in place by
the start date of July 1, 2013. A doctoral degree is preferred.
Please send a letter of application, current résumé, copy of
transcripts, three (3) letters of recommendation and a copy
