On Thursday, the City School District of Âé¶¹Ó°Òô’s Board of Education appointed Susannah Sheehan to the position of assistant principal at Âé¶¹Ó°Òô School of Humanities.

She replaces Glenn Westfall, who was named earlier this fall as the City School District of Âé¶¹Ó°Òô’s new assistant director of health, physical education and athletics and will begin in that role Jan. 27.

Sheehan earned her bachelor’s in childhood education/special education in 2014 and completed a master’s in literacy in 2015, both from The College of Saint Rose. She has worked as a third-grade teacher at ASH since the start of the 2015-16 school year, and in 2021-22 completed an administrative internship at ASH as well.

We wish Sheehan all the best in her new role. The search for a replacement in the classroom is already underway.
