BY: M. of A. Simpson
COMMEMORATING the 100th Anniversary of Johnsburg
Central School
WHEREAS, It is the sense of this Legislative Body to recognize and
commend those institutions of true purpose and high achievement whose
exemplary programs and accomplishments clearly demonstrate an enduring
pursuit of excellence in the education of the youth of this noble Empire
State; and
WHEREAS, Attendant to such concern, and in full accord with its
long-standing traditions, this Legislative Body is justly proud to
comemmorate the 100th Anniversary of Johnsburg Central School; and
WHEREAS, Johnsburg Central School, after 100 years of service to its
community, continues to create an educational environment which ensures
opportunities for learning, personal growth, and social responsibility;
and
WHEREAS, The history of the school spans back to 1894, when there
were 21 rural school districts offering education through the eighth
grade in the area prior to an important merger; The Union School (North
Creek High School) was built in 1897 and expanded in 1925 with the
construction of a large brick and mortar school which housed students in
grades 7-12; and
WHEREAS, In 1946, the 21 local school districts centralized,
becoming Johnsburg Central School for grades 1-12, with pre-k and
kindergarten added in later years; multiple physical additions to the
building have been built since 1952, demonstrating the school's
commitment to growth and adaptability to best serve its community; and
WHEREAS, The steadfast and unyielding commitment of parents,
educators, and administrators to provide the highest quality education
for students has become the hallmark and tradition of Johnsburg Central
School; and
WHEREAS, Today, Johnsburg Central School stands prepared to reach
out, in earnest and enthusiastic quest of its mission, to promote the
maximum growth of every student, establishing standards and building
skills which will carry its students and the citizens of its community
into the future; and
WHEREAS, Johnsburg Central School is proudly aware of its
distinguished past, eager to fulfill its present commitment to parents,
students, and the community, while planning with vision and purpose for
the positive growth and change it will encounter in the years to come;
now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
commemorate the 100th Anniversary of Johnsburg Central School; and be it
further
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to Johnsburg Central School.
