Cambridge Public Schools Welcome David Murphy as Interim Superintendent Amid Leadership Changes
Cambridge Public Schools is ushering in a new era of leadership with the recent appointment of David Murphy as interim superintendent—a development reported by The Harvard Crimson. Murphy, who has a history with both Boston and Medford Public Schools before joining CPS in January 2023, assumed the role yesterday. This change follows the School Committee's decision to sever ties with the prior superintendent, Victoria L. Greer, less than a month ago. This decision was made in response to dissent among parents, particularly regarding hiring practices at Graham & Parks Elementary School and other institutions.
