Board unanimously approves three‑year contract for Superintendent Dr. Brian Blanc

The Delaware Valley School District Board of Education voted unanimously to approve a three‑year contract for Superintendent Dr. Brian Blanc covering July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2029. Board members expressed broad support for Blanc’s leadership and cited the district’s recent initiatives during the discussion.

Trustees noted the superintendent’s role in the district’s 1DV initiative and community engagement. “I have been pleased with Dr. Blanc over the last four years,” a trustee said during the meeting as members commended the superintendent’s work. The board recorded a roll‑call vote with Christine Agron, Jessica Decker, Brian Fels, Jack Fischer, Felicia Sheen, Doret Smith and Rosemary Walsh each voting yes, making the approval unanimous.

The vote followed a brief discussion in which members described the contract as an opportunity to continue programs the administration has advanced; no members recorded a dissenting vote. Dr. Blanc thanked the board, saying he was “humbled and thankful” for the extension and called the district his professional home.

The approval is the most recent formal action on superintendent employment; the contract will take effect July 1, 2026. The board did not discuss specific contract compensation details during the public meeting.
