Antwon Sutton said he hopes to take Chester County “to the next level.”
Sutton was named the Chester County School District’s new superintendent. He starts on July 1.
Sutton replaces Angela Bain, who is retiring on June 30.
“I’m excited to be here and to get started with you all,” Sutton said Tuesday during a press conference. “I’m grateful to the (school board) for selecting me.”
Sutton said he will be working with Bain in the weeks leading up to his new role.
“I’m grateful to her for staying on to help me in this transition,” Sutton said.
Sutton is the former executive director of student services in the Fort Mill school district.
Sutton also has been a principal in Richland, York and Berkeley County, The Herald previously reported.
“I’m sure you will be pleased with my performance,” he said. “With your support and with the community’s support, we can do great things in this county.”
