Barbara Nuzzi, Tuckahoe's School Superintendent, Resigns

Dr. Nuzzi has held the position for two years.

Dr. Barbara Nuzzi, superintendent of the Tuckahoe School System, has resigned effective Sept. 1, 2015.

News 12 Westchester reports that Nuzzi tendered her resignation to the Board of Education Wednesday during a board meeting. The resignation is because she is retiring, officials said.

Nuzzi, whose annual salary is $235,000, had signed a three-year contract in 2013. She came to the Tuckahoe district from the Putnam Valley Central School District where she served as superintendent.
