SCHENECTADY – Acting Superintendent Aaron Bochniak is leaving the district over the summer and going back to his roots.
Bochniak announced at Wednesday night’s virtual Board of Education meeting that he had accepted a job as an assistant superintendent at the Hamilton-Fulton-Montgomery (HFM) Board of Education. His last day is Aug. 31.
The agenda for that district’s HFM BOE meeting indicates that the panel approved a five-year deal beginning Sept. 1 for Bochniak to serve as the assistant superintendent for BOCES’ Operations and Component District Services.
His impending departure comes as Schenectady school leaders are poised to begin searching for a superintendent again after contract negotiations with their preferred candidate, Pedro Roman, recently fell through. Roman is an assistant superintendent in the Newburgh Enlarged City School district in Orange County and a former Schenectady administrator.
