Dear Scarsdale families

Over the past many months, we have been engaged in a search process to identify the next principal of Greenacres Elementary School. I am excited to announce that we have identified Ms. Trish Iasiello as the next principal of the Greenacres Elementary School. She will be appointed at our upcoming Board of Education meeting on Monday, March 10th.

Ms. Iasiello is currently serving as the Assistant Principal of the Fox Meadow Elementary School where she has been since 2019. Prior to her current role, she was a highly-regarded elementary school teacher for twenty years at Quaker Ridge Elementary School. Ms. Iasiello holds an Educational Leadership Advanced Certificate from Long Island University, an MS in Special Education from Mount St. Mary College, and a BA in Elementary Education from Clemson University in South Carolina. Throughout the hiring process, her student-centered approach was evident in each and every answer. Ms. Iasiello’s long history and experiences in Scarsdale gives her a deep understanding of the community and culture that are unique to Scarsdale. In addition, her warmth and approachability will allow her to continue to build strong and positive relationships with students, faculty, staff and parents. These combined skills, qualities, and experiences will position Ms. Iasiello and the entire Greenacres community to thrive in future endeavors.

I also would like to thank the Greenacres School community for their involvement and support in the process. Their willingness to invest both time and energy ensured our success in identifying a candidate that aligns with the leadership profile. I look forward to seeing all that Greenacres accomplishes under the new leadership of Ms. Iasiello. Please join me in welcoming her to their new role!

Trish’s transition to this new role creates a vacancy at Fox Meadow. We will begin the process of searching for an assistant principal for the 2024-25 school year immediately upon her appointment on March 10th. I will be working closely with Fox Meadow Principal, Melissa Feinberg, to ensure a successful hiring process and a smooth transition for the new hire.
