The Eastport-South Manor Central School District announced the retirement of longtime district Clerk Sharon Murray, who held the job for more than 30 years.

Part of her duties included preparing documents and resolutions for more than 1,000 board meetings, Superintendent of Schools Joseph A. Steimel explained.

Ms. Murray was the Clerk during the district’s merger and building of the current Eastport-South Manor Jr.-Sr. High School.

“To say she is the mortar of the bricks is an understatement,” said Superintendent of Schools Joseph A. Steimel.

Board of Education President Jeffrey Goldhammer also thanked Ms. Murray for her decades of dedication to the community.

“She (Sharon) is irreplaceable to any board member entering into a trustee position and will be missed,” Mr. Goldhammer concluded.
