Schuylerville School Board Member Resigns

SCHUYLERVILLE — Schuylerville Central School District Board of Education member Michael Bodnar resigned this month after serving the district since July 2017. His resignation is effective starting August 31.

“As an active member of the community, Mr. Bodnar always served in the best interest of students, providing thoughtful contributions to board discussions and decisions,” the Board of Education’s members said in a statement. “The board wishes Mr. Bodnar the very best in the future.”

In addition to being a board member, Bodnar was also board president, board vice president, audit committee chairperson, and a legislative liaison. He was also the assistant coach for Schuylerville Middle School’s modified baseball team. 

The board now has two options to fill Bodnar’s vacant position: they can either hold a special election within 90 days, or appoint someone to fill the vacancy until the district’s annual budget and Board of Education election in May 2025. If the board appoints someone, the appointee would serve until June 30, 2025.
