Despite the state law requiring registration after 30 days, Portsmouth's superintendent is still driving around with Illinois license plates, according to an investigative report.
Despite a state law requiring drivers to register their vehicle within 30 days of moving to the Ocean State, one school superintendent has failed to comply. Portsmouth Superintendent of Schools Lynn Krizic, who became superintendent in summer 2011, is still driving her 2003 Saab Turbo with Illinois license plates, according to an investigation by The Hummel Report. Krizic, a Little Compton resident, told Jim Hummel she failed to change the license plates and register her vehicle despite living in Rhode Island for more than 18 months. Krizic's former town of residence, Elmhurst, IL, does not charge property taxes on vehicles, according to the report.

Teachers will be asked this year to submit recommendations for new courses.
Superintendent Lynn Krizic says she hopes to formalize the course review process for this school year. Under the new process, Portsmouth High School teachers will be asked to submit course proposals to Principal Robert Littlefield, who will share the proposals with the Principal Leadership Team.

The new superintendent attended her first School Committee meeting in the new role on Thursday night.
In her first official School Committee meeting as superintendent, Lynn S. Krizic made several recommendations. The meeting was held at the Portsmouth High School Library Thursday evening. Krizic’s first recommendation was to ask the school committee to issue a Request for Proposal or RFP for an electronic Web-based governance system. The system would basically be a depository and archive for any and all information involving the school committee and the school administration. It would contain minutes from meetings, information, back-up document packets used to inform committee members on issues before them and possible videos of each meeting. The information could be viewed from anywhere 24 hours a day, seven days a week. “This would …
