At its February 24 meeting, the Churchville-Chili Board of Education appointed Kim Giancursio as Principal at Churchville Elementary School starting July 1, 2026, following the retirement of current Principal Kate Daly.
Mrs. Giancursio is the current Assistant Principal at Churchville Elementary School. She has worked for Churchville-Chili CSD for 20 years and has been Assistant Principal since July 2021. She previously worked for the district as an Instructional Literacy Coach and a First Grade Teacher.
She has a Bachelor of Science in Education from SUNY Fredonia, a Master of Science in Education from Nazareth College, and a Certificate of Advanced Study in School Building and District Leadership from the University of Rochester.
“Kim’s two decades of service as a teacher, literacy coach, and assistant principal reflect the very heart of our mission and core beliefs: engaging every student, building strong relationships, and fostering a welcoming environment where all learners can thrive,” says Superintendent Carmine Peluso. “As Principal Daly retires at the end of this school year, I am confident Kim will continue to lead Churchville Elementary with the care, high expectations, and student-centered focus that define the Churchville-Chili Central School District community.”
“I am incredibly honored to accept the position of Principal at Churchville Elementary School,” says Kim Giancursio. “I value the relationships I have developed with the students, staff, and families of our school community. I look forward to our continued partnership in supporting the growth and success of every student.”
