Following interviews with three applicants on Tuesday, December 9, Julie Durgin-Sicree was appointed to fill a vacancy on the Sudbury Public Schools School Committee. The appointment was made by the overwhelming majority of the Sudbury Select Board and Sudbury Public Schools School Committee.
There were three applicants for the vacancy, which was created by the resignation of Mandy Sim, just months before her term was set to end. The appointment is a short-term appointment, lasting only until the conclusion of Annual Town Meeting in May of 2026. The seat will then be filled by the winner of an election in the Annual Town Elections in March of 2026.
The appointment process is happening amidst ongoing negotiations with Sudbury Public Schools union groups, including teachers and nurses. Meanwhile, the district has reported an unexpected $1.6M budget deficit for the next fiscal year (FY2027).
Members of the Select Board encouraged Durgin-Sicree to get sworn in by the Town Clerk promptly in order to begin participating in critical meetings in the coming weeks.
