Dear Community Members,
As I begin the school year as acting superintendent, I want to share how excited I am for what’s ahead at Mahopac Central School District. In just a few short weeks here, I’ve seen our teachers, staff, and administrators pour their hearts into getting classrooms, fields, and buildings ready. The pride they take in their work is clear, and it sets the stage for what I believe will be one of our strongest years yet.
Over the past month, I’ve had the chance to walk the halls, visit with staff, and talk with families. Everywhere I go, I’m reminded of the tremendous opportunities our students have here; from academics to athletics, arts and extracurriculars, and all the supports we provide along the way. What stands out most is the impressive level of care and commitment across this district, and I’m proud to be part of it.
In the weeks ahead, I look forward to seeing many of you at school events — whether that’s cheering from the sidelines at a game, attending a concert or play, or joining us at a Board of Education meeting. And if you can’t make a game in person, don’t forget you can still catch the action through our Wolf Pac Local Live broadcasts.
As the year begins, I do ask one thing of our community: please keep an eye out for students waiting at bus stops and for stopped school buses. A little extra patience on the road goes a long way toward keeping our kids safe.
Thank you for your continued support of Mahopac schools. At the end of the day, it’s about the students. Their safety, growth, and success will remain at the center of every decision I make while I have the privilege of serving as your superintendent.
Sincerely,
Frank Miele
Acting Superintendent of Schools
