Canfield board honors retirees and commends student-athletes for 2024–25 seasons
Summary
The board read resolutions honoring multiple retiring staff members for decades of service and entered student athletic recognitions into the record, commending teams and individuals across multiple sports.
At its July 9 meeting the Canfield Local School District Board of Education publicly recognized longtime staff retirees and entered formal student resolutions commending athletic achievements from the 2024–25 school year.
The board read the names and years of service for retiring staff including Ruth Ann Altero (34 years, CBMS fifth-grade English), Valerie Weingart (33 years, CVMS fifth-grade science/social studies), Kim Wilson (24 years, CVMS grade 8 American history), Lisa Zets (39 years, Hilltop kindergarten), Denise Carquito (25 years, CHS head cook), Janice Welsh (40 years, transportation aide), and other district employees. The board thanked each retiree for their service and invited them to the reception.
The meeting also recorded student resolutions and athletic recognitions covering softball, tennis, track, lacrosse and baseball. The board commended multiple athletes and teams — for example, several students were named first-team all-AAC or all-NEO in softball and tennis, the boys’ tennis team was named AAC co-champion, and the baseball program recorded its 900th career win on April 2. The resolutions concluded with a motion to enter the commendations into the official minutes.
Speakers and text are taken from the meeting transcript; the board read the list into the record and passed the resolution to commend students and teams.
