Welcome from the Superintendent

Please allow me the opportunity to introduce myself to the Oriskany Central School community. My name is Gregory Cuthbertson and I am honored to be the new Superintendent of Schools and serve this great district. I look forward to getting to know the Oriskany community, our students, our families and the team of professionals who support our mission to educate, engage and empower students to excel in an ever-changing world.

I would like to tell you a little bit about myself. First and foremost I am a husband and father. My wife Amber and I have two children, Jaxon and Alexa (we call her Lulu) and we currently live in Sauquoit. I have been in public education for over 23 years serving as a teacher, coach and principal. Most recently, I served as the Pre-K-12 Principal of the Poland Central School District for the past 9 years. Before that, I was a teacher and coach in the Rome City School District.  My educational background includes a bachelor’s in Education, a master’s in Education and Certificates of Advanced Studies from SUNY Cortland.

As I begin my tenure at Oriskany I would like the school community to know that students and learning will always be at the forefront of any decision that I make. I deeply believe in providing a quality and comprehensive education for all students. Even with the district's many strengths, a transition of leadership presents an opportunity for positive change and for the district to be even better in the coming years. It is my goal to continue to build upon the strong foundation and success of the district while creating new innovative opportunities for our students to explore their interests and find their true passions. I am looking forward to the work ahead.

Oriskany is not only known for its academic excellence and extracurricular programs, but it's personal attention and positive relationships between students and staff. I am committed to building relationships with all school stakeholders and developing a learning community that is inclusive and dedicated to a culture that supports continuous improvement. While serving as your Superintendent of Schools, I plan to be accessible to all stakeholders and maintain an open door communication practice. I encourage and welcome any questions, comments or concerns you have about our schools and can be reached directly at gcuthbertson@oriskanycsd.org.
