Welcome to the Mascenic School District

Superintendent’s Welcome

Dear Members of the Mascenic Regional School District Communities,

I am honored to introduce myself as your new Interim Superintendent of Schools. Thank you for your warm welcome and best wishes. It’s nice to return to my home State of New Hampshire!

I want to tell you a little about myself. I was born and brought up in Concord, NH. During my close to 40 years in public education I’ve worked as a classroom teacher, school counselor, the Director of an alternative program for juvenile offenders and as a principal. During the past 17 years I have worked as a school superintendent in both New Hampshire and Massachusetts. I have earned my undergraduate and graduate degrees through the University of New Hampshire and my doctorate in education from Boston University.

As I have the opportunity to meet with staff, parents and citizens, I’m learning about the challenges ahead and I’m also learning about the many positive things that are happening in your/our schools. During the course of the upcoming 2017-18 school year, I hope to take advantage of the opportunity to share the good news about the students who attend Mascenic’s Schools, the staff who work here and the success that is coming about as a result of everyone’s combined efforts.
Sincerely,
Stephen Russell, EdD
