Appoquinimink School District Gets New Chief

The Appoquinimink School District will get a new superintendent next month. Matt Burrows, the current principal of Louis L. Redding Middle School, will assume the position after the Appoquinimink School District Board of Education named him to the post Tuesday.

"I'm very excited," Burrows said in a statement. "Appoquinimink has a tradition of academic excellence, and I'm thrilled to have the opportunity to build on that. I can't wait to get to work."

Burrows will take over after Tony Marchio retires after 16 years as superintendent. Under Marchio, the district grew and consistently ranked as one of the top performing districts in Delaware. Burrows said he wants to build on that good reputation by working closely with students, staff and residents. Burrows said he will host a series of meet-and-greet events with the Appoquinimink community.
