CLINK ABOVE LINK TO VIEW FOIL DOCUMENTS
The documents include:
• The Somers Proposal
• The Brewster Proposal
• The AD’s letter of intent to merge
These documents are attached for everyone to review.
Key points:
• Copies for the Board Meeting: I will bring printed copies to the 1/15 board meeting and distribute them to the board members.
Timeline Discrepancies:
• Brewster Proposal was sent to the AD on 12/13/2024.
• Somers Proposal was sent on 12/17/2024.
• AD Kiernan claimed Somers letter was received the day after John Jay dropped us and she signed letter on 1/7/2025. Why is she misleading parents?
Letter of Intent Issues:
• Signed on 1/2/2025 by AD Kiernan, Superintendent VanDerStryuf, and Principal DiGrandi.
• References only Varsity and JV teams—no mention of modified teams or the Taconic Youth League program (and its fees).
• Enrollment projections show just one JV player and zero Varsity players.
Transportation Oversight:
Disclosed by the NS head of transportation to me on 1/13.
• North Salem Transportation confirmed they have NOT been contacted by the AD or BOE about busing for this program.
• The 2025 school year will start 30 minutes later, creating additional scheduling conflicts for sports transportation due to staffing shortages.
• These logistical challenges should have been addressed before program approval.
This is clear evidence of deception by AD Kiernan. I will be demanding answers at Wednesday’s meeting.
