Dear Roxbury Family:
As you may be aware, our community, our families, have been impacted by the sudden passing of someone who was dear to so many. We are grateful to the Charlotte Valley and Andes Central School Districts who are assisting with counseling support for our students and staff.
With so many of our staff and students wanting to attend services, and our commitment to allow staff to grieve as a group with their families and friends, we will be dismissing school tomorrow, April 11, 2023 at 11:30 a.m. following lunches. After school activities, such as CROP will be canceled as well. Mr. Ludwin, our Athletic Director, is attempting to reschedule the Varsity Softball and Baseball games. Mr. Funck and Ms. Ware will communicate all information to their respective teams.
The Board of Education meeting scheduled for tomorrow at 7:00 p.m. in the Chorus room will continue as scheduled. The reception to welcome Ms. Stacy Ward to the Roxbury district, the finalist as the next Superintendent of School, is also continuing as scheduled at 6:30 p.m., also in the Chorus room.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to those who are grieving this loss.
Respectfully,
Joanne Shelmidine
The Board of Education is pleased to announce its intent to appoint Ms. Stacy Ward as Superintendent of Schools at our regular Board of Education meeting on April 11th. Ms. Ward has the experience and skills to successfully lead the district through the next years.
There will be a reception to greet Stacy beginning at 6:30 on April 11. Please stop by to say hello.
There are two scheduled sporting events over break:
April 5th there is a home baseball game vs. South Kortright @ 12pm
April 6th there is an away baseball game vs. Gilboa @ 10am
As we examine our procedures regarding the law enforcement issue that occurred last evening behind the school, we recognize that our safety plan needs to be expanded to better address issues that occur after school. That will be the priority for our next safety team meeting.
Due to expected cold weather, tomorrow's Varsity Baseball game has been postponed.

Please take a second to look through some of our lost and found items! We also have so many items not pictured.
Over the weekend two of our Culinary students went above and beyond at the Burger Battle. Jody Albano and Vesti Misner took students to the Culinary Institute of America this weekend and they came home the winners! Not only did they take 1st and 2nd place in NY AND VT, but ProStart identified that our students have set the bar extremely high for future competitions.
Congratulations to Jody Albano, Vesti Misner, Anthony Accordino (1st place winner) and Syke Lewis (2nd place winner).
