Cosby’s three-year contract begins June 15, Moore said.
INITIAL REPORT
Dr. Reva Cosby on Wednesday night was named the new superintendent of Trotwood-Madison City Schools.
Cosby is the current superintendent of Mount Healthy City Schools, near Cincinnati, where she has been since 2015.
She earned her Master’s from Wright State University and her doctorate from the University of Dayton.
Cosby also has worked in urban and suburban school districts in the Dayton area during her career.
She taught at Wilmington College and was principal at Wayne High School before taking the Mount Healthy job.
The educator’s career also includes stints as a Trotwood High School unit principal from 2004-07 and a turn as a teacher and grant writer for Dayton Public Schools.
Cosby was one of 14 applicants for the Trotwood post and will replace Marlon Howard, acting superintendent/operations director.
School board President Denise Moore said Cosby likely would begin this summer so as not to disrupt the school year.
