St. Maryโ€™s County Superintendent of Schools, Dr. Michael J. Martirano, has been elected president of the Washington Area School Superintendents Council (WASSC) for the 2008-2009 school year.

The WASSC is a group of 17 area superintendents from Virginia, Maryland, the District of Columbia, the Archdiocese of Washington and Arlington, and 13 retired superintendents who meet once a month in Washington, D.C., to discuss current and relevant educational topics and issues.

โ€œI am honored to have been selected president for the upcoming school year,โ€ said Dr. Martirano. โ€œThe professional development activities of the WASSC have been invaluable for all participating superintendents.โ€
