Following a structured interview process, the Centennial School District board voted to appoint Eric C. Baranowski as school director representing Region 3 in Warminster. Board procedures required nominations and a roll-call vote; Baranowski's appointment passed 5–3. The board read the appointment as effective Jan. 27, 2026, with the term running through Dec. 4, 2028.
Board members conducted interviews of multiple candidates during the meeting. Candidates who answered a standard set of questions included Neil Miller (participating virtually), a long-time Warminster resident with a 35-year police career (speaker 12), a parent active in school programs (speaker 15), and a former board member with eight years’ prior service (speaker 14). The board followed a nomination-and-second process before the roll-call vote that resulted in Baranowski’s appointment.
No immediate changes to policy or personnel were tied to the appointment during the meeting. The new director was congratulated by the board and welcomed to future meetings. Per board rules stated during the interviews, an appointee requires a majority (five) of the full board for appointment.
