Mackey
Unadilla Valley Central School District Superintendent Bob Mackey last week announced his coming retirement after a 34-year career in local education.
Mackey said he will serve as superintendent through the end of the 2020-2021 school year and will be replaced by deputy Superintendent Brenton Taylor in July. Mackey will continue as Taylorâs deputy superintendent until October to help facilitate the transition.
âAs someone whoâs been in the district this long, you really want to give as much notice as possible,â Mackey said. âWe wanted to make sure we got the transition started officially and formally.â
Mackey has served as UV superintendent since 2007, when this yearâs graduating class started Pre-K.
