Steve Dubin, the Director of Facilities at Boys’ Latin School of Maryland, passed away in October 2025 from a severe illness.

He was a true Laker and partook in the college football bowl pool.

Steve Dubin had been a dedicated and essential part of the Boys’ Latin School community for decades.

He graduated from Johns Hopkins University in 1984 and began his long-standing role as Director of Facilities in July 1985. He was the quiet force responsible for maintaining the school’s physical environment.

His work ensured the campus was a safe, welcoming, and supportive space for every student, teacher, and staff member.

Steve was a familiar and friendly face in the community. He was a keen football fan and was a regular participant in college bowl pools.

Nonetheless, he was always considered a good judge of the Ravens’ state.

Steve Dubin’s Family Mourns the Tragic Loss

Steve Dubin was a man whose kindness, reliability, and warm spirit touched the lives of countless people.

He passed away recently, leaving behind a legacy of dedication and care that will forever be cherished.

Steve was a true friend and steadfast colleague.

He was a man anyone could always count on, a steady presence in times of need whose unwavering support was a comfort to all. His genuine nature and generous heart made every interaction meaningful.

His impact was immeasurable as an educator and mentor at Boys’ Latin School. He possessed the rare gift of making every student feel seen and valued, treating them as pupils and friends.

He believed in them, championed their successes, and guided them with a gentle and encouraging hand.

The school’s halls will deeply feel his absence, but the lessons of compassion and integrity he imparted will continue to resonate for generations.

He proved that a school’s heart isn’t only in its classrooms but also in the caring hands that maintain its foundations.

Mr Dubin always treated me like a buddy
He’s one of the faculty who would always call me ‘Pappy’ up to the last time I saw him
He partook in my college football bowl pool (even when I was a student, which I bet would be frowned on in this boring time)
He was always a good judge of the state of the Ravens (I wish he made it to a good recovery period, but so it goes)

Steve’s memory will live on in the hearts of his family, friends, colleagues, and the many students whose lives he so positively shaped.

The Dubin family will soon announce the details regarding memorial services and ways to honor Steve’s memory.

Rest in peace, Steve Dubin.
