One element of the current job posting for a new
principal at Southbridge Middle/High School that caught our attention was the
line, “Southbridge Public Schools, under the leadership of Superintendent Buzz
Nembirkow, has created an intensive and innovative plan to overhaul Southbridge
education as he did with the Brockton Public Schools.”
We have heard repeatedly about Mr. Nembirkow’s transformative
role in the Brockton school system. It is the foundation of the miracle he is
expected to perform here in Southbridge.
It was therefore with some surprise that I recently
came across a 2012 article from the Boston Globe titled, “Sabis
seeking charter school in Brockton”.
