“I am very excited and honored to be the next superintendent of Sachem,” said Ms. Trombetta. “Sachem is a very special place to me, and I am deeply rooted in continuing the culture, pride and strong sense of community that exists. I look forward to working with everyone in the educational process to ensure that we continue to develop the culture of excellence in all we do.”
