The Rome Board of Education held a special meeting on Monday, May 13th, to appoint Ms. Nerlande Anselme as the new Rome City School District Superintendent. Board members, administrators, teachers, staff, community members, family, and friends were on hand for the appointment.
Before signing the contract, Anselme addressed those in attendance, saying: “What we want to do is work together to put Rome on the map so that people would want to come and live here and invest here, and I can’t do this alone. That’s with leaders from the district, with all teachers, with all staff members, but also the community. I need you. We need each other, and I am here. I am ready to serve. I am ready to roll up my sleeves and let’s do this together and really make Rome rise,” said Anselme.
Anselme starts her new position on July 1, 2024.
