SUPERINTENDENT BOYLE

Published: 08 November 2026

Congratulations to School Board of Levy County

Submitted by
SUPERINTENDENT TAMARA M. BOYLE

TAMMY CERT 2026 xe1


At last week’s Associations of Districts School Superintendents (FFADSS) conference, Levy County Superintendent Tammy Boyle was presented with her Certificate of Special Qualification by FADSS CEO Senator William J. Montford.

Superintendent Boyle completed all requirements for the certification in December 2025, just 13 months after taking office. The recent conference provided an opportunity to officially recognize this accomplishment with Senator Montford and capture the moment.

The Certifications of Special Qualifications is a statutory program for elected superintendents that requires completion of several professional development requirements within six years of taking office. These include five training institutes focused on Instructional Leadership, School Finance, Core Concepts, school Law, and Collective Bargaining, followed by written examination covering the content of each institute.

Superintendent Boyle is also enrolled in the 15-month CEO Leadership Development Program, the other statutory programs for elected superintendents, which she plans to complete in March 2027.
