New school year, new school district superintendent in East New York
Veteran Educator Dr. Thomas McBryde Jr. is Named to Lead Community District 19
One of Brooklyn’s easternmost school districts is approaching the upcoming school year with new leadership, and new hope that past troubles are behind it.
Schools Chancellor Carmen Fariña this week announced the appointment, effective Sept. 1, of veteran educator Dr. Thomas McBryde Jr. as Acting Superintendent of Community School District 19.
McBryde replaces Joyce Stallings-Harte, who, Farina’s office said, has accepted a position as special adviser to the Department of Education’s Office of School Support and Supervision.
