Thomas M. Kennedy, Shrewsbury's Director of Human Resources, reported in the Spring 2007 Vol XI issue of the Shrewsbury School Journal that "eighteen staff members are retiring at the end of the current school year.  It is important to recognize each of these individuals for their commitment and dedication to the children of Shrewsbury. 

Listed below are the names, position, and years of service to Shrewsbury.  A number of these individuals have also worked in other school districts prior to their arrival in Shrewsbury.

Eight of our retirees have served the children of this town for 25 years or more!  The entire community wishes a happy and healthy retirement to all our retirees."
