The Union County/ College Corner Joint School Board unanimously approved John Edge, EdS., as the district's new superintendent at Monday night's special session. 

Acting Interim Superintendent Gregg Pettit passed the torch, saying, “This is a wonderful bunch of people…our administrators are great, our teachers are fantastic, and our support staff, the custodians and bus drivers, all the people are great.  You're in a good spot.  Congratulations.”

Edge will begin on Nov. 28, with about three weeks to transition (with support) into the position.  He said he is looking forward to being part of the UC/CC family, and is very excited to get started.

“A lot of work went into becoming a superintendent, and I couldn't have picked a better place…  We were looking for somewhere like this,” said Edge, who is originally from North Carolina. “On behalf of my family and myself, we are glad to be here and I think you won't be disappointed.”
