Six Staff Members to Retire

At its December meeting the Bronxville Board of Education accepted the retirements of five teachers and one cleaner. The teachers included Dennis Davan (Middle School science), Mary Angela Kennedy (Elementary Special Education), Donnie Kravitz, (grade 3), James Mitchell (High School Latin), and Mary Linda Orsenigo (Middle School social studies). Their service to the district totals 151 years. All have not only shown their dedication to children through their classroom performance, but have also demonstrated leadership as team leaders, curriculum leaders, club advisers, and coaches. Their announcement comes as part of a retirement incentive approved with the Board as part of a broader effort to contain costs. The retirements become effective at the end of the school year.

The Board also accepted the retirement of Tadeusz Wesley, a cleaner with the District for over 23 years.
