Leland superintendent retiring

The search is on for a new superintendent for the Leland Public School District.

Stephanie Long, whose been at the helm at Leland for five years, announced her retirement last week.

“I’m so grateful to have been a part of the Leland School community these last five years,” Long said. “We have been through some really tough times together — COVID, a construction project, financial diffi culties, the physical and mental exhaustion of those experiences — and we have solidified our bond as a collaborative, caring, and supportive team.”
