“The Spencerport School District Board of Education engaged in a rigorous search process and gave extensive consideration to all candidates to determine the best fit for the district,” said Board President Gary Bracken. “We remain impressed with all of the candidates who applied, each with exemplary qualifications. The board selected Dan based on his extensive and varied experience, collaborative leadership style and knowledge of the district. We feel his appointment will ensure Spencerport has a leader who understands and puts the needs of our students first.”

Bracken added, “The community and staff engagement, interview panels, and tours were much appreciated and proved to be invaluable to our work.”

Milgate is currently the assistant superintendent for schools at Spencerport and has served in that position since July 2011. Prior to being named assistant superintendent, he served as the district’s assistant superintendent for instruction for three years, the Canal View Elementary School principal for six years and as a high school assistant principal for three years.

“It is an honor and a privilege to be selected as the next Superintendent of Schools for the Spencerport Central School District,” said Milgate. “I look forward to continuing the pursuit of excellence our students and staff demonstrate every day. I have been fortunate to be a member of the Spencerport family for more than 15 years and I’m honored by the Board’s faith in me to take on a new leadership role.”

The Board would like to thank Monroe 2-Orleans BOCES District Superintendent and Search Consultant Jo Anne L. Antonacci for her assistance throughout the search process. “My fellow Board members and I greatly appreciate the work Mrs. Antonacci did on our behalf to give us an outstanding result in this search,” Bracken said.
