District Superintendent Message

Michael J. Rullo
DCMO BOCES District Superintendent

 

Welcome! 
  I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself. My name is Michael Rullo, and I am the new DCMO BOCES District Superintendent.  

 I am excited to have the opportunity to serve our school superintendents, our staff, and most importantly our students.  The DCMO BOCES schools are so similar to the rural school community I have served for the past 15 years.  Elevating the opportunities we can offer our students beyond the rural limitations and challenges we face is my personal interest.




—NYS Commissioner of Education Betty A. Rosa appointed Michael J. Rullo as the DCMO BOCES District Superintendent on October 26, 2022. He began his tenure with the DCMO BOCES on February 13, 2023.
