Middle School Special Education Teacher Shari Berg was honored at the Annual Board of Education reception held on June 2, 2008. Shari was chosen as the Albion Central School Educator of the Year after nominations were received from both staff and community members. Shari has been a district employee for the last seven years. The nomination form stated, “Shari molds the minds and bodies of the students in her room, she positively engages any student within the building. Her personality and work ethic are a perfect fit for a middle level educator. To observe her working is truly a joy. As you watch her interact with her students, you will not only notice her caring ways through observation, but you will feel it in your heart as well. Shari definitely represents everything we stand for at ACS.”

Shari is a member of the Albion Middle School Schedule Committee, the Student Support Team and is very much involved with the Special Olympics. She is also the production assistant for the high school plays and musicals.

The reception also recognized retirees: John Adriance, Karen Imburgia, Al Johnson, Steve McKenna and Cheryl Nudd for their dedication to the students of the district. Congratulations to the following staff that have attained tenure: Melody Beecher, Patricia Levendowski, Stephanie Krull, Holly McNair, Laura Rog, Cassie Monacelli, Lisa Swindon, Jerry Piwko, Lori Kiefer, Kristen Martin, and Bridgitte Griffin.
