A longtime Springfield schools administrator has been selected to take over temporarily as superintendent.
Robert Leming will become interim superintendent when Walter Milton steps down at the end of March.
Leming has held a variety of administrative positions in the district over the years, and retired as human resources director in 2004… but came back to that job last year following the resignation of Alexander Ikejiaku.
Leming says he has no interest in the job on a long-term basis, and the search for a new superintendent will get underway soon.
