“Thank you all for the trust and faith that you clearly have placed in me to serve our most valuable community assets, our children,” Winston said.
Winston has been with the MCCSC since 2017. She has a doctorate from the University of Cincinnati and before coming to Bloomington worked in administrative roles with the Chicago Public Schools and the Cincinnati Public Schools.
At the meeting, the MCCSC board also approved the Childs-Templeton merger.
