Staff Recognition and In-Service
St. Johnsbury, VT — August 21, 2024. The St. Johnsbury School District kicked off the new school year with its first day of in-service on August 21, 2024. This engaging event, organized by the district’s leadership team, welcomed back the dedicated staff and set the stage for the year ahead. The event started with a motivating address from Superintendent Karen Conroy, whose remarks set an inspiring tone for the coming school year. Her speech focused on the district’s vision, mission, and ongoing strategies to advance the district’s strategic plan. She also updated staff on the summer construction progress, noting that recent flooding had caused delays in some of the exterior projects.

Following Conroy’s address, several exceptional staff members were honored for their outstanding contributions:

Teachers of the Year: Lauren Farina and Bill Fitzgerald

Paraprofessionals of the Year: Amanda Hartwell and Rebecca Schoenemann

Support Staff of the Year: Donna Paquette

Additionally, the district recognized staff members for their significant milestones of service: 5 Years: Kim Matthews, Phyllis Colby, Sarah Gray, Mahlon Davis, Rebecca Gillespie, Kelly Rodgers

10 Years: Dawn Aguirre, Lisa Emerson, Elizabeth Ladd Carter, Heather Rutledge

20 Years: Wendy Smith, Bridget Ferrin Smith, Melody Persons, Deb Grasso

20 Years of Service in the District: Matt McLean

25 Years: Viola Champney, Carol Hale

35 Years: Carl Johnson, Beth Piper

The three-day in-service schedule included activities to foster professional development and team cohesion. Staff participated in a variety of focused sessions, including deep dives into Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS) and Universal Design for Learning (UDL).
