TORRINGTON — The Board of Education on Wednesday confirmed Cheryl F. Kloczko as the district’s new superintendent of schools and was greeted with a standing ovation from an audience of about 30 teachers and parents.
The board also announced Kloczko’s salary as $142,250 annually, the same salary paid to former Superintendent Christopher G. Leone who left the district in August. Kloczko said in remarks Wednesday evening that “for all you teachers and community members, we’re in this together.”
