Goodin Headshot

After leading the Spring-Ford Area School District for nearly ten years, Superintendent Dr. David Goodin submitted his resignation on December 17, 2020. Dr. Goodin accepted the position of Superintendent of Schools in Sampson County, North Carolina.

“I’ve been reminded, during this global pandemic, the importance of family. My family plans to move back to the Carolinas. I’m originally from the South, my mother, children, and grandchildren all still live in the South, and it is important for my family that we spend more time together,” said Goodin. “Spring-Ford is an exceptional school district in a supportive community. It has been my honor to serve as your Superintendent.”
