Salem Central School has hired new principals for its elementary and junior-senior high schools, according to an announcement on the school website. Both will start on July 1.

Cheryl Record will be elementary principal. She will leave her position as assistant principal at Greenwich Elementary School, which she’s held since 2013. Before becoming assistant principal, she taught sixth grade and was dean of students at the school. She has degrees in elementary education and students with special needs and a certificate of advanced study in educational administration. She will replace interim elementary principal Mark Fish, who had retired as Greenwich Central School superintendent in 2022. 

Sean Graney will take over the junior-senior high school.

“The faculty, staff, Board of Education, and myself are excited to welcome Mrs. Record and Mr. Graney to the Salem Community and are looking forward to working with them,” School Superintendent Julie Adams said in a statement.

Pre-K-12 enrollment at the rural school is 572 students, according to the school website. The student body includes students from adjacent Rupert, Vermont, which does not have its own high school.

Congratulations, Cheryl! You will be missed!!
