David Fine became superintendent in 2015. [3] He resigned in 2017. [4] The current superintendent is Dr. David Mauricio.

Schools

It consists of four elementary schools, one middle school, and one high school. The elementary schools operated on a "neighborhood" basis until 1999. Beginning the 1995–1996 school year, sixth graders were moved from elementary schools to the middle school. Until the 1998–1999 school year, each student attended the school closest to his or her home, beginning in kindergarten and ending with graduation from fifth grade. In 1999, the elementary schools were integrated, each school housing two grades. In 2009, the newly built Peekskill Middle School caused a shift in the locations of grades yet again and consequently moved grades one through five around. The high school serves grades nine through twelve.
