The Bethlehem Central School District Board of Education at its meeting Wednesday, Dec. 21, honored retiring Superintendent Dr. Michael D. Tebbano with a ceremonial resolution commemorating his 38 years in education and his time with BCSD as a teacher, principal and superintendent.

The resolution commends Tebbano for leading the district with "with levity, humility, honesty and integrity" while furthering the district's missions of providing a safe and healthy learning environment. (View the resolution at left.)
