I’ve been hesitant to make this post because I wanted to ensure that those closest to him heard the news from a more personal source than Facebook. Based on the posts I’ve seen this afternoon I believe it is now appropriate for me, as superintendent, it to share the news of Mr. Matt Orin’s passing with the district and the students who he loved so much along with their parents and all members of the Western community. I won’t go into detail but I can confirm that Mr. Orin passed away from an apparent heart attack very unexpectedly. Matt Orin was a valued member of the Western family. The multitude of posts by Western staff members and students will do a much better job of describing Matt and his impact on our school and community than I can. Matt has been a great friend to me and many others at Western for the past several years and he will be greatly and sadly missed by staff and students alike. When details of the arrangements are made public I will share them with our staff and students. Please keep his wife and young daughter in your prayers. Please also remember Western staff members and the students who he has made such a tremendous impact on in your prayers.
