7/23/13 - The principal of Pathfinder Elementary has been chosen as the new superintendent of the Pinckney Community School District. Dan Danosky, the current superintendent, will take over as the superintendent of the Livingston Educational Service Agency beginning next month. He has been grooming Pathfinder Principal Rick Todd to be his successor, and the Pinckney School Board chose to interview Todd at a special meeting last night rather than go through a complicated search for an outside candidate. Board President Anne Colone tells WHMI the board was under no requirement to advertise the position, and she called Todd following the interview to inform him that the board would like to hire him for the position. He accepted, pending contract negotiations. Colone says the board was impressed with Toddâs presentation, vision, and history of leadership within the district. Todd describes his leadership style as one of service, cooperation, and collaboration with the districtâs staff. He has been the principal of Pathfinder for the past nine years, and currently has not picked a successor to that position. He first came to the district as a middle school math teacher at the age of 27. (TD)
