The Spencerport Central School District has appointed Meagan Phippen as the new assistant principal of Cosgrove Middle School, effective August 1. Phippen will fill the open position left by Tom Burger.
“We are thrilled to welcome Meagan as our new Cosgrove assistant principal,” said Superintendent Ty Zinkiewich. “Her experience as an educator, instructional coach and overall leadership will be a great addition to Spencerport, and I believe our staff and families will find that she has an established commitment to academic excellence and creating a positive learning environment for students.”
As part of the new middle school team, Phippen will join principal Jordan Addison and assistant principal Ben Chatley, both of whom began July 1.
Phippen comes to Spencerport with close to 20 years of experience in education. She is currently an assistant principal with the Wayne-Finger Lakes BOCES summer school and an instructional coach at the UPREP Charter School for Young Men. From 2006-2022, Phippen taught English Language Arts in the Lyons Central School District.
Phippen has earned a bachelor’s degree from the University of Albany and a master’s degree in education from Elmira College. She is currently working toward her certificate of advanced studies in educational leadership from SUNY Brockport.
