A faculty representative presented awards for families who completed the Marlboro Faculty Thousand Book Program, a district initiative designed to encourage families to read together. The speaker listed honorees—Isabella and Isaiah Dehany, Cordelia and Cassius Black among them—and asked families to come forward for recognition and photos. “We believe that Marlborough Central School District is a vibrant community of readers,” the presenter said, and she thanked the board and community for supporting the program.

Board members and the superintendent praised the students and families for their accomplishment; the meeting record notes applause and an invitation to watch a recording of the recognition on the district’s YouTube channel. No formal action was required; the item was a ceremony-style recognition within the meeting.
