Cheshire Resident Hired as Madison School Superintendent

Thomas Scarice of Cheshire will be appointed as the new superintendent of schools in Madison tonight. He previously worked at the Two Rivers Magnet Middle School in East Hartford and in the Weston School District.

In East Hartford, Scarice said he worked with a team that did outstanding work developing interventions for at-risk children, and developing an inclusive environment.

In Weston, he said a 16-member committeee recently developed a teacher evaluation plan. "It really honors the professional practice of teaching," Scarice said. "Teachers are professionals and they have a professional practice. I just live by that mindset."
