The Superintendent
Maureen Binienda, Interim Superintendent
About 1,418 students start their day in this district, and one person answers for all of it. Maureen Binienda became Interim Superintendent of the Blackstone-Millville Regional School District on July 27, 2026, while the committee runs a search for a permanent superintendent. The Superintendent proposes the school budget, sets academic priorities, and runs the district day to day. The office is hired by and reports to the elected School Committee, which carries out an annual evaluation. Because the district is regional, that committee answers to two towns at once: it has eight members, and Millville voters elect four of them.

The School Committee
The Blackstone-Millville Regional School Committee has eight members serving staggered terms, four elected by Millville voters and four by Blackstone voters, because the two towns share one regional district. The committee sets district policy, approves the school budget, and hires and evaluates the Superintendent who runs the schools day to day. Millville’s four seats are held by Tara Larkin, Matthew Catalano, Jane Reggio, and Erin Vinacco; Blackstone elects the other four, including the chair, Daniel Keefe. The meetings are public, which means a Millville student who shows up can speak.
