Brady named interim superintendent at Colton-Pierrepont Central School
Jul. 31—COLTON — A retired school superintendent is back in the superintendent's chair again. The St. Lawrence-Lewis Board of Cooperative Educational Services announced Thursday that Patrick H. Brady, who retired as the Massena Central School District's superintendent in 2023, would be serving as interim superintendent at Colton-Pierrepont Central School. The appointment was effective last Monday. Brady brings more than 35 years of experience in education and leadership to his new role. He steps into the position following the departure of James Nee, who has served as superintendent at Colton-Pierrepont since 2018. Nee will begin his new role as deputy superintendent at St. Lawrence-Lewis BOCES on Monday. "I'm honored to join the Colton-Pierrepont community and support the district during this transition," Brady said in a press release. "I look forward to working closely with the Board of Education, staff, students, and families to continue the district's tradition of excellence and ensure a smooth start to the school year." Brady has served in a variety of leadership and instructional roles throughout his career, including superintendent positions at both Massena and Potsdam school districts. He also held roles as a junior high principal, assistant high school principal, and summer school teacher in Massena. Earlier in his career, he taught high school social studies at Potsdam for 12 years. The Colton-Pierrepont Board of Education has also announced that it is actively seeking a permanent superintendent and will keep the community informed as the search process moves forward.
