The Micro Computer Center (MCC) is currently marking a decade of its technology internship initiative, and former Crusaders have returned to take advantage of this opportunity. Since 2016, 58 interns have worked in the MCC, gaining valuable experience with new technologies while helping repair and maintain computers throughout the district.
Led by Computer Network Specialists Zachery Neenan and Cody Walsh, a team of six interns travel throughout the district when many classrooms are empty, to learn new systems, perform inventory and repairs, and upgrade digital devices.
“The interns are a huge part of this process. They assist in ensuring classrooms are ready for teachers, staff, and students on day one of the new school year," remarked Neenan.
Although majoring in diverse fields such as journalism, engineering, and pre-med, these students all recognize the critical role technology plays in their respective fields. When asked why he chose to intern at MWCSD, Stony Brook sophomore Pravin Jegan shared, "I attended school here for 12 years, why not work here and give back."
“This program was initiated by district administration to support our students with college and career readiness, while also assisting the district with a variety of technology-related projects. It aligns with our mission to ensure all students (and alums) have access to opportunities that help them grow in and beyond the classroom,” said Bhargav Vyas, Ed.D., Assistant Superintendent of Compliance and Information Services. 💻

If you have moved recently, please remember to update your address with the school district. Bring your lease or mortgage and a utility bill to the main office of your child's school, and they will update your records. Doing so will ensure that your student’s bus stop and transportation are correct for the school year!

On Tuesday, July 7, the Monroe-Woodbury Central School District celebrated the grand reopening of its Education Center at 278 Route 32 in Central Valley following a year of extensive renovations. The historic building, which has long served as the District's central administrative offices, was transformed as part of the voter-approved capital improvement program.
To mark the occasion, Board of Education trustees, district leaders and community members gathered for a ribbon-cutting ceremony, which included remarks from Superintendent of Schools Tracy Norman and Board of Education President Kaytlin Simmons, as well as the unveiling of the state-of-the-art auditorium where Board of Education meetings and other community events will be held.
The new windows, cutting-edge technology and bright, welcoming workspaces are immediately visible. Equally important, however, are the extensive behind-the-scenes improvements, including upgraded infrastructure and mechanical systems that will support the District for decades to come.
As part of the celebration, the District created a time capsule that captures both the rich history of this building and this exciting new chapter. The Board of Education Trustees signed a proclamation commemorating the building’s long history and its significance to the people of Monroe-Woodbury. The time capsule will be opened 50 years from now, offering future generations a glimpse into this moment in our district's story.
“The Education Center has a rich history. Built nearly 100 years ago, it originally served as our district's first high school and middle school, serving grades 6-12. As our community grew and enrollment increased, the building evolved to become the administrative heart of our district. Today, it continues that legacy—renewed, modernized and ready to support the important work that happens here every day,” remarked Superintendent of Schools Tracy Norman, Ed.D.
