Superintendent job offer rescinded over use of term 'ladies'
Supporters of Vito Perrone, the current interim superintendent of West Springfield Public Schools, will hold a protest in Easthampton on Monday evening after his job offer to be the next superintendent of Easthampton was rescinded last week. Perrone said the offer was rescinded after he sent an email about upcoming contract negotiations to School Committee Chairwoman Cynthia Kwiecinski and the board’s executive assistant Suzanne Colby, addressing them as "ladies." The School Committee will hold a special meeting on Tuesday to discuss the superintendent search and potentially vote on a new candidate.
