GREENFIELD, MA (FRANKLIN COUNTY NOW) — Discussion on the position of an assistant Superintendent in Greenfield Public Schools continued at Wednesday’s City Council meeting. Superintendent Christine DeBarge upheld support for the position, sharing that multiple schools in the district were underperforming in 2020 when Karin Patenaude was appointed Assistant Superintendent and has helped those schools make strides in improvement since then, a job DeBarge claims requires a dedicated position focused on academic performance on a day to day basis.
