Her contract, which started March 1, 2020, was set to expire on February 28 anyway, but William Hart was named Interim Superintendent in November and to the position with a longterm contract in December. The School Committee voted not to renew Tahiliani’s contract well before her being placed on paid leave. Her not being allowed to fi nish out her term of employment was perhaps unusual, but the decision not to renew the contract was not. In any event, she was paid through the end of the contract, which could negate any claims of lost wages. In addition, any claims that the terms of her leaving Everett aff ected her ability to fi nd a new job might be negated by her getting the job in Brockton, which seems to be a good fi t for someone who was Superintendent in a similar working-class city like Everett. In the interim, Tahiliani applied unsuccessfully for superintendencies in Melrose and Natick. Brockton and Everett are both classified “gateway cities” by state authorities, being considered midsize, working-class cities facing economic challenges, but in retrospect were “gateways” to economic prosperity.

Brockton School Committee Vice Chair Tony Rodrigues liked Tahiliani’s familiarity with urban communities. A motion by the Everett School Committee to have the case dismissed in Federal District Court in Boston was allowed in part and disallowed in part, and lawyers are reportedly now in the discovery stage of the proceedings. Meanwhile, Samantha Lambert has not submitted a formal letter of resignation from her atLarge seat on the School Committee, which she announced on Monday, June 17. “Until there’s a letter, she’s still a member,” City Clerk Sergio Cornelio reported. Her seat will be offered to those who fi nished out of the running in the 2023 election for at-Large seats, all of whom received the necessary 20% of the vote to be considered. Lambert led the fi eld, followed by Samantha Hurley and Joseph LaMonica for the three seats on the ballot. Cynthia Sarnie, who was an incumbent in 2023 and trailed LaMonica by only 16 votes with 1,527, finished fourth. Kristin Bairos fi nished fi fth with 1,450 votes, 77 behind Sarnie. Farah Costa fi nished sixth with 1,297 votes.
