Radio Roundtable and the Search for Worcester’s Next School Superintendent
WORCESTER, MA – April 29, 2025 — The Radio Roundtable — with Randy Feldman, Matt Wally, and “Big” Ben — weighs in on the search for Worcester’s next School Superintendent. Feldman and Wally believe hiring from within makes sense, while Big Ben argues that there should always be a national search. The discussion also covers the selection process for an interim superintendent and whether that person should be eligible to compete for the permanent role.
As the deadline approaches for candidates to submit signatures for the 2025 municipal election, the Roundtable looks at key developments, including Sean Rose announcing he will not run and Gary Rosen confirming that he will, along with other notable names entering the race.
