Hi, my name is Patti Dushane and my family and I are lifelong residents of Catskill. I am a graduate of Catskill High School and attended Columbia Greene Community College. My son and daughter also graduated from Catskill High School. I am retired from the Catskill Central School District where I was employed for 28 years. I am the Executive Director of the Matthew 25 Food Pantry here in Catskill.

I enjoy being a board member and being involved with the school and community. I take my role as a Board of Education member very seriously, and want only the best for all of the students, faculty, and staff of the Catskill Central School District.
