CCSD Welcomes New Faculty for 2025-26

Catskill CSD welcomed the newest members of our educational team to Catskill August 27 with an on-campus orientation program. Our entire leadership team was on hand to help familiarize them with our programs, procedures, facilities and school culture. As part of the orientation, our new hires also boarded a bus for our traditional tour of the different communities that make up our school district. For the 2025-26 school year, please join us in welcoming Kristen Lamake (CHS Earth Science), Erin Dudzic (CES special education), Durga Taylor (CHS life science), Riley Kohler (CES special education), Melissa Stagg (8th grade Spanish), Leah Haviland (6th grade long-term sub), Samuel Kirschner (8th grade science), Regina Giordano (CHS special education), Bonnie Caro (3rd grade), Peyton Mosher (CES physical education), Thomas Guile (CHS Physics), Daniella Moses (CES Special Ed.) and Samantha Miriello (CMS English as a new language) to our educational team. Joining our new teachers is Kayla Gessner as our new CMS assistant principal. Together, Cats Can, and Cats Will!
