Principal Clarita Zeppie is retiring from the Osborn Elementary School in Rye. Her announcement follows:
Dear Parents,
After much agonizing and soul-searching, I have submitted my retirement letter to Dr. Shine effective June 30, 2012. We will have plenty of time to talk and plan for next year, and I am certain that the district will work hard to find an excellent principal for the Osborn School. I will do all that I can to assist in the transition, and I will be available should you need my help.
Sincerely,
Clarita Zeppie

You are a trailblazer Ms. Zeppie! You are standing up for what is right for our children and I wish all principals had your courage. I wish you could teach this to our newest principal here in Rye. There is much more to life than APs and test scores. What about mental health and well-being? What about downtime? What about family time?
