Our New Castle family mourns the loss of a beloved Trojan, John Scott Griffith. A 1969 NCHS graduate, Mr. Griffith made New Castle his forever home. He taught in the Corporation for forty-five years as our NCMS Math Teacher, and strengthened #TrojanPride during his role as Athletic Director. As a member of Phi Beta Kappa, the oldest and most prestigious academic honor society in the United States, John complimented our Corporation School Board values, where he faithfully served the past two and a half years. Dedicated to the growth and promotion of New Castle Schools, our students, families, staff, and community members have been positively changed by his extraordinary and generous life. Our honor and condolences go to his family in this difficult time. Thank you, Mr. Griffith, for nurturing young minds, fostering a passion for knowledge, and instilling a lifelong love of learning in every life you touched. You are, and forever will be, part of the great Trojan legacy.
John Griffith’s family would like to welcome the New Castle Community to join them for his
Visitation this Saturday, June 7, 2025 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM at
