At its March 22 meeting, the Hilton Board of Education appointed Kristen Paolini to the position of Assistant Superintendent for Instruction. She replaces the retiring Dr. Barbara Surash and will begin her new position on June 1.
“We are very pleased to have Kristen join the Hilton learning community,” said Superintendent Dr. Casey Kosiorek. “Her impressive track record of leadership, relationship building, and knowledge of curriculum and instruction made her the clear choice for the district.”
Paolini currently serves as K-12 Director of Curriculum for the Spencerport Central School District, a position she has held since 2017. Prior to that, she was an assistant principal at Spencerport High School. She began her career teaching English in the Gates Chili Central School District.
Paolini has a bachelor’s degree in English with a minor in education from St. Bonaventure University, a master’s degree in English education from SUNY Brockport, and an administrative certificate from Canisius College.
A Hilton School District resident, Paolini lives in North Greece with her husband, Tom, and their four children: twins Andrew and Barrett, freshmen at Hilton High School, and twins Reese and Reagan, fourth-graders at Northwood Elementary School.
“I am humbled to have been selected to serve the Hilton Central School District as the Assistant Superintendent of Instruction, and look forward to the opportunity to collaborate with students, staff, and the community on delivering the high-quality educational programming for which Hilton is known,” said Paolini.
