Bedford's Superintendent Takes Medical Leave

BEDFORD, NY — The superintendent of the Bedford Central School District will be stepping down temporarily for medical leave. In an email to the community Sunday, Christopher Manno wrote about his love for the faculty, staff, community and families of the district.

"Unfortunately, I need to take some time away from this special place for medical leave," he said.

In his absence, Assistant Superintendent Joel Adelberg was designated acting superintendent of schools, per board of education policy.

"If you need assistance from the superintendent's office, please contact Mrs. Carole LaColla, executive assistant, clacolla1777@bcsdny.org. She will direct you to the administrator who can help with whatever you may need," Manno said.

"It is my hope to return strong and continue to work on behalf of our students and families," he said.
