Ocean City schools have not one, but two retired superintendents who will lead the district for the 2021-22 year as interims. Dr. Tom Baruffi became the interim superintendent in June. Longtime educator and administrator Mark Napoleon was approved as the high school's interim principal following the retirement of Dr. Matt Jamison. Baruffi will be in the temporary role while a nationwide search is conducted to replace Dr. Kathleen Taylor, who retired this month as Ocean City's superintendent of schools.
