  • A Call for Community Collaboration

    August 14, 2024

    Dear Carmel Central School District Community,

    After our board meeting on August 13, 2024, the board has carefully listened to and reflected on the sentiments expressed by some members of our community. Now, we need your help in moving forward.

    We heard from many of you who felt unwelcome or unsafe at our board meetings. We want to make it clear that the board stands united in denouncing all forms of discrimination, prejudice, harassment, bullying, and hate. We are dedicated to supporting all of our community.

    Our mission at Carmel Central School District is to educate the whole child in an environment free of bullying, harassment, and discrimination. We have received numerous letters, emails, and concerns brought to us at the podium, and we are committed to addressing them, as we have historically done, with our mission at the forefront.

    We ask for the community’s collaboration in maintaining a respectful and inclusive atmosphere at our board meetings. The board needs to focus on the district’s important business with our new superintendent while adhering to the standard of conduct outlined in our Code of Conduct.

    We ask for your adherence to our Code of Conduct as we strive to create a welcoming, affirming and productive environment for all members.

    Thank you for your continued support and cooperation.

    Respectfully,

    Board of Education President Melissa Orser

    Vice President Dawn Dall

    Trustee John C. Curzio II

    Trustee Jordi Douglas

    Trustee Jason Paraskeva
