“Mrs. Paladino’s dedication and commitment to students throughout her educational career is inspiring,” Dr. Jones said. “We are delighted to have her join Greenwich Public School’s on a district level.

“I am honored and excited to be joining the District’s academic team as the new K-8 English Language Arts Coordinator,” Mrs. Paladino said. “I look forward to working collaboratively with administrators, teachers, parents, students, and the community in order to enhance literacy instruction and support achievement for all students.”
