The Wynantskill UFSD Board of Education appointed experienced superintendent Lee Bordick as the district’s interim superintendent/principal at their August 15 meeting.

Mr. Bordick will start Wednesday, August 21. He replaces Dr. Lisa Henkel, who resigned from her position at a special Board of Education meeting on August 14.

Mr. Bordick served 22 years as the superintendent of Lansingburgh Central School District before retiring in 2007. Since retiring, Mr. Bordick has served as an interim superintendent for Ichabod Crane CSD and Chatham CSD. He also served as an interim principal at Catskill CSD.

 “As a Board of Education, we are pleased to have someone of Mr. Bordick’s reputation and experience agree to serve as our superintendent/principal,” said Board President Andrea Paone. “His most immediate priority will be to ensure Wynantskill Union Free School District is fully prepared to open its doors to our students on September 4. We are confident he will successfully meet that short term goal, as well as embrace this board’s mission to provide our students with the richest educational opportunities our community can support.”

The Board approved compensation of $600 per day with plans to negotiate a longer term agreement in the immediate future. Posted 08/19/13.
