At the March Board of Education meeting, Mr. Mark McAteer announced his plans to retire at the close of this school year. Mr. McAteer has served on the Board for six years beginning in 2014. He has been a member of the community since 2001, where he lives with his wife Tina, and children Erin (class of 2019), and Shane (class of 2021). He shared, “It has been my pleasure to serve the community in this challenging but gratifying role. It always felt that there was an important topic to work on that could affect the children, the parents, or the community at large. I would encourage my neighbors to consider how they can volunteer and contribute to this exceptional district.”
