Want to be more involved with all things school? Our CPCS parent group, the Colts in Action, is looking for people to help out. Don't have a ton of time to give? Pick just one event and help with that. We need help with Trunk or Treat, holiday store, popcorn 1x a month, staff appreciation week etc. Email jmckinley@cpcs.us if you are interested!



Have any extra playdoh or fidget toys you'd like to donate to school? We are looking to start a collection that can be used in the cafeteria when our students finish eating! Items can be dropped off in the main office. 😊


We had a great first day at CPCS! Buses are just leaving, about six minutes later than usual. Your kiddos will be home soon!

We are excited for school to start tomorrow! Doors open at 7:35AM. Parents dropping off students need to use the drop off lane out back of the gym. Drop offs are not permitted out front.

The Colton-Pierrepont Central School District is pleased to announce the appointment of Patrick Brady as interim superintendent, effective July 28, 2025.
Brady, who retired as superintendent of Massena Central School District in 2023, brings more than 35 years of experience in education and leadership to his new role. He steps into the position following the departure of Jim Nee, who has served as superintendent at Colton-Pierrepont since 2018. Nee will begin his new role as deputy superintendent at St. Lawrence-Lewis BOCES on August 4, 2025.
“I’m honored to join the Colton-Pierrepont community and support the district during this transition,” said Brady. “I look forward to working closely with the Board of Education, staff, students, and families to continue the district’s tradition of excellence and ensure a smooth start to the school year.”
Brady has served in a variety of leadership and instructional roles throughout his career, including superintendent positions at both Massena and Potsdam school districts. He also held roles as a junior high principal, assistant high school principal, and summer school teacher in Massena. Earlier in his career, he taught high school social studies at Potsdam for 12 years.
The district extends its sincere gratitude to Nee for his years of dedicated service and leadership and warmly welcomes Brady as he begins this important interim role.
The Colton-Pierrepont Board of Education has also announced that it is actively seeking a permanent superintendent and will keep the community informed as the search process moves forward.
