Roaring Fork High School Principal Lyn Bair has announced her plans to retire at the end of this school year after almost 40 years in education and two years at the helm of the Carbondale school.
“It has been an amazing opportunity and privilege to work with the students, staff, and families in our RAMS community over the past couple of years,” Bair wrote in a letter to RFHS students parents and staff.
“Although this global pandemic has impacted our work together as a school community, I have been inspired by your resilience,” she wrote.
Bair was hired as the RFHS principal for the 2019-20 school year, replacing former Principal Brett Stringer. Bair was previously the principal at Bridges High School for 15 years, and an assistant principal and teacher in the Roaring Fork Schools the 10 years before that.

“The health department is working with a dedicated team at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) to determine potential exposure and contain any further spread,” Garfield Public Health said in a Saturday morning press release.

“We have the system all set up and should be ready to stream tomorrow night’s games,” Glenwood Springs High School Assistant Athletic Director Jordan DeCrow said.
