Dr. Lonny Rivera Steps In as Deputy Superintendent at Perkins Schools, Eyes Superintendent Role

Dr. Lonny Rivera began his role as the deputy superintendent of Perkins Local School District today, April 24, 2024. He will serve briefly in this position before becoming superintendent on August 1, following a contract adjustment by the Perkins Schools Board of Education. This adjustment aims to give Dr. Rivera time to work with the outgoing Superintendent, Todd Boggs.

The Board of Education, led by President Eric Lapata, supports the transition period between Dr. Rivera and Mr. Boggs. They believe their good professional relationship will help ensure a smooth change in leadership.

Dr. Rivera joins Perkins Schools with extensive experience in education. Before this, he was the Director of Innovation at North Point Educational Service Center in Sandusky. He has also worked as a special education teacher, a principal at various Ohio schools, and served as the interim Superintendent of Public Instruction for Ohio.

Todd Boggs, the current superintendent, will remain in his position until July 31, 2024. He announced his retirement last school year after a six-year term. His leadership has notably impacted the district.
