Superintendent Steps Down for Personal Reasons

Superintendent Steven Dellinger-Pate has stepped down after two years leading Washington Central School District, citing personal reasons and a need to prioritize his well-being. He’ll remain through July 31 and expressed pride in his work, thanking parents for their trust. His resignation sidesteps the district’s ongoing reconfiguration plan, which continues despite budget pressures from new state thresholds. The school board is focused on a seamless transition, seeking an interim leader by June and planning a transparent search for a permanent replacement. Dellinger-Pate, who previously led U-32 Middle and High School for ten years, hasn’t finalized post-departure plans but remains open to returning to education — maybe even teaching again.
