Goodby message: I want to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude to each of you for the support you have provided my students over the past 20 years. Words cannot accurately describes the emotions as I reflect on all of the friendships that have blossomed over the years. Students. Parents. Faculty and Staff. Business/Industry Partners. Local Automotive Enthusiast. As some of you may or may not know, I have taken a position as Program Coordinator for the Automotive Tech...nology Program at SUNY OCC. This was a very difficult personal decision that was made but ultimately I felt I needed to take on this new challenge and opportunity. Opportunity. What a powerful word. . . This will be my final message as teacher for East Syracuse Minoa CHS Spartan Garage. Please know that I will work to help keep the program going, as the new instructor comes to the helm. Your support has been, at times, overwhelming, and I'm praying that will continue on in the future. So, let's not say "goodbye". Let's say, "till we meet again". Below is a picture of a going away gift from the Spartan Garage Booster Club Parents. It will hang proudly in my personal shop. 15 builds over 15 of the past 20 years. Please join me at SUNY OCC for my next venture. Please follow me at: Automotive Technology at SUNY OCC Sincerely, Ryan

Class of 2020 raffle winner Brian Stoddard of East Syracuse. Ticket number 15,294... Brian is also a graduate of ESM and a former Automotive Technology student! Congratulations Brian!!!
