Schalmont Retiree Connection

Welcome home, Schalmont family !

The Schalmont Retiree Connection was created for you... our former colleagues, mentors and friends.  This is a place for your to re-connect with those with whom you may have lost contact...or just a way to "keep in touch" with STA members, present and past.

All retired STA members were mailed a questionnaire asking for your name, address and other information.  If you did not receive one, you may download it here and can mail or email the information to Carol (Fonda) Carelli, current STA Secretary and Webmaster.  We will be posting any/all information received from the survey and will make every attempt to keep the site as current as possible. If you have any trouble viewing the page (or any other page in the STA website), please email Carol at ccarelli@nycap.rr.com .

Retiree Luncheon Another Success! - The Schalmont Retired Teachers' and Administrators' luncheon was held on October 7, 2009. Many thanks to Carmeen Kolpack and Audrey Patneaude for hosting the event.  A reminder for next year's luncheon will be sent out in the spring!  If anyone has pictures from the event that they would like posted to the STA website, please email Carol Carelli.  **Note: If retirees contribute the dues to our retired teachers' and administrators' luncheon, their names will remain on the active list to receive the luncheon invitations every year.   (2008 photos)


Listserve Created - In an attempt to "connect" with each other, Mark Alfano has created a discussion list at: http://retiredlist.markalfano.com/listinfo.cgi/schalmontretired-markalfano.com  This is a members only list which is available to former Schalmont teachers and administrators.  Members choose their passwords and can unsubscribe at any time.  There are a couple of steps to subscribing for security reasons, but it is quite simple.
