At its meeting Tuesday night, the Falls Church School Board emerged from a closed session to approve a new four-year contract with Superintendent Dr. Peter Noonan, running from July 2021 to the end of June 2025.

Noonan thanked the board, and noted that he and his family officially moved into the City of F.C. over the summer. He began serving as superintendent here just over four years ago.

Having foregone any salary increase the last two years, he is receiving a four percent raise comparable to what all school staff received this time, with his new contract being for a salary of $234,688 annually.
