South Bend Community School Corporation

South Bend school leaders vote to begin the process of extending Superintendent Mansour Eid’s contract through 2027, triggering a required public hearing.

The Paradise Valley Unified School District board Tuesday night voted unanimously that Superintendent Todd Cummings should be fired for violating multiple policies, including lying on his job application.

For the last three years, commencement was held at Notre Dame’s Compton Family Ice Arena. Superintendent Mansour Eid told the school board Monday that it cost $140,000 to rent the facility.

Students expelled from the South Bend Community School Corporation – and those struggling in a traditional classroom – will soon have a new option. The school district rolled out plans for a new alternative education program during Monday’s school board meeting.

Bill Sniadecki argued that he was lawfully appointed to the St. Joseph County Public Library Board, but was blocked from taking his seat. He asked a judge to stop the library board from voting on the 2026 budget until he was seated.

South Bend Schools partner with Oaklawn and Paramount Health Data Project to connect student health and academics in a first-of-its-kind statewide initiative.

“We must prioritize our needs and work on the capital projects which are most needed, to ensure the bare minimum safe and secure learning environment for all our students, regardless of their race or their neighborhood or the side of the town,” Chief Financial Officer Ahnaf Tahmid told the school board Monday.

South Bend Community Schools Corporation Trustee Bill Sniadecki is asking a federal court to intervene and put him on the St. Joseph County Public Library board before it passes its 2026 budget Oct. 20.

The Paradise Valley Unified School District in Phoenix earlier this year hired Todd Cummings as superintendent despite the South Bend school board publicly investigating various allegations against him.

The Paradise Valley Unified School District board was set Tuesday to consider placing former South Bend Superintendent Todd Cummings on paid leave, for a reason the board's meeting agenda doesn't specify, and appointing an interim superintendent.
