“This is very proud day for Minisink Valley,” said Superintendent Brian Monahan. “We’re so thrilled to have had a beginning role in Stefanie’s basketball and Olympic success. Stefanie’s drive and commitment to excellence — both on and off the court — remains a wonderful role model example for all our students. She and her family are also among the nicest people you’ll find anywhere. Congratulations to Stefanie, the Dolson family, her 3×3 teammates and everyone who had a role in this wonderful achievement.”
