In 2011, the Mayor of the City of Providence appointed Mr. Hemond to the Providence School Board, the entity responsible for overseeing the operations of the state’s largest school system. He was elected to serve as the President of the Providence School Board and held that position until he stepped down at the end of 2021 when he moved from the City. While on the Board, Mr. Hemond led the district's efforts to obtain increases in funding from state leaders, including modifications to the funding formula and additional funding to assist the District in educating its increasing number of English language learners. Mr. Hemond helped the District navigate the state-led takeover of Providence Schools in the final years of his tenure and worked closely with state officials to set up a new school district governance structure that remains in place today.
