Oberlin District Names New Curriculum Director
Lorain principal John Monteleone, 39, with 16 years in Lorain schools, will become Oberlin's full time curriculum director for 2016-17 under Superintendent David Hall. He will replace the part time director, accepting a pay cut to about 90,000 dollars a year, and will lead a strengthened access to curriculum for students and staff. Monteleone was unanimously chosen from five candidates after a committee review praised his curriculum knowledge and leadership in Lorain, including Washington Elementary's rise from an F to an A. He plans to remain in Lorain until his younger daughter finishes high school, then consider relocation to Oberlin.
