Dear Families of the Lyndonville School Community,

It has been my greatest honor to serve as the Lyndonville Central School District Superintendent, so it is bittersweet that I announce my retirement effective August 1, 2025. I began my educational career as a teacher in 1984.

Over the past four decades, I have been fortunate to work alongside many dedicated educators, supportive families and extraordinary students, but it is here in Lyndonville where I take the greatest pride. Together, we have built a culture of excellence, innovation and care — one that makes Lyndonville Schools such a special place.

The dedication of our administrative team, faculty, and staff has made a lasting impact on our students and community. Lyndonville truly has the most amazing children and families, and I am grateful to have been part of this incredible journey.

Reflecting on my time in this district, I am incredibly proud of the progress we have made. From enhancing academic programs to expanding opportunities for students, every achievement has been a testament to the collective hard work and dedication of our faculty, staff, and community.

While stepping away from this role is difficult, I do so with confidence in the strength and leadership of our school community. I know that Lyndonville Schools will continue to thrive, inspire and provide an exceptional educational experience for generations to come.

I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to the families, students, staff and community members who have made my time here so meaningful. Your unwavering support and commitment to education have made all the difference, and I will forever cherish the memories and relationships built along the way.

The Lyndonville faculty and staff, Lyndonville families, and most especially, the children of Lyndonville Schools will be in my thoughts, my prayers, and forever in my heart.

I will forever bleed orange and black.

GO TIGERS!

With the deepest appreciation,

Sharon Smith
