By Brooke Coupal
As the new school year kicked off, a familiar face was ready to greet students in Chelmsford, Massachusetts.
Jay Lang ’00, ’15, who got his master’s degree in education administration and his Ed.D. in education in leadership in schooling at UMass Lowell, has served as the Chelmsford Public Schools superintendent since 2015 and says seeing the students return never gets old.
“From elementary to high school, kids are saying, ‘How are you, Dr. Lang? Did you have a good summer?’” says Lang, who welcomed students as they returned to school in late August. “I get to see the investments that we’ve made pay out for the kids who are coming back, and that’s really rewarding.”
