Superintendent

2025-26 Newsletters

To the Hollis and Brookline Communities,

I am truly honored to serve as your new Superintendent of Schools. Having spent much of my career in this district—as a chemistry teacher, as Assistant Superintendent, and now in this new role—I feel deeply connected to our schools, our staff, our families, and most importantly, our students.

My years in the classroom gave me first-hand insight into the strengths and challenges our educators and students experience each day. That experience continues to shape my leadership and my unwavering belief that every decision we make must be grounded in what is best for students.

Throughout my time in administration, I’ve been committed to creating and supporting pathways for all students to achieve their full potential. Whether a student is preparing for college, entering the workforce, exploring the arts, or pursuing a technical trade, it is our responsibility to ensure they have access to the tools, opportunities, and support needed to succeed.

This year, I am especially excited to lead the implementation of our district’s new strategic plan. This plan is more than a roadmap—it’s a shared commitment to fostering excellence in education, supporting the professional growth of our outstanding staff, nurturing the well-being of every student, and ensuring our schools remain safe and secure spaces for learning and growth.

I look forward to partnering with each of you—families, educators, staff, students, and community members—as we move forward together. Thank you for your trust and your continued dedication to our schools. I’m excited for all we will accomplish in the year ahead.

With appreciation,
Gina Bergskaug
Superintendent of Schools
