A Little About Myself.

On December 18, 2018, I was appointed Superintendent of the Ridgefield Public Schools and have proudly served the students of Ridgefield since February 19, 2019.  I look forward to learning more about Ridgefield in the coming weeks and months. Please feel free to email me at wcollins@ridgefieldps.net

Until this past August, I proudly served as the sixth superintendent of Newington Public Schools in Newington, Connecticut. I began my teaching career at Newington High School in 1985, and held positions in other districts as a teacher and administrator before returning to Newington and being appointed principal of the high school in 2004.

​I was appointed Superintendent of the district in 2009 and served the Newington community with pride and honor until my retirement in August 2018.

Initial Activities:
  • I will be reaching out to parents and community members over the next few weeks as part of my listening tour.  Dates will be posted soon. I am thankful to our PTA groups at each school for supporting this. 
  • On Wednesday, February 20th, I will begin my day riding one of our buses on all four tiers as a way of better understanding the school day of our students and staff. 
  • We will be conducting either a Facebook Live or an actual broadcast on Thursday February 21st.  I encourage parents or community members to call in with any questions.
