Union City Board of Education Assistant
Superintendent and former Emerson High School Principal, Robert J. Fazio’s
career endeavor was always to serve the inner city urban education
community. A graduate of Emerson High School in Union City, Mr. Fazio
went on to pursue higher education at St. Peter’s College where he
earned both his graduate and undergraduate degrees. Before becoming
Assistant Superintendent, Mr. Fazio was Principal of four schools and
two-time principal of Emerson High School.
As a young student,
one of the most important lessons Mr. Fazio learned was that when
setting personal goals, you can and must achieve them in spite of what
others think. Some of the traits that Mr. Fazio attributes to the
success of Union City students are hard work and a deep appreciation
for their academic studies. He also reminds students to “work hard,
because only good things happen with hard work.”
When not
working, Mr. Fazio enjoys sharing time together with his family. His
favorite books are The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Last Man Down. When
asked who his hero is and why, Mr. Fazio said, “Martin Luther King and
Mother Teresa are my heroes because of their dedication to helping
others who were less fortunate.”
