Board praises police, fire and mayor for partnership after district safety meeting
Summary
A board member reported a recent safety meeting with the police and fire departments and the mayor, saying the city agencies will provide additional in‑service training and are cooperating with the district on student safety measures.
A board member told the Cohoes City School District Board of Education on June 11 that a recent safety meeting with the police department, fire department and the mayor produced constructive collaboration and plans for additional in-service training.
The board member said the meeting covered a range of safety topics, including responses to bomb threats and fires and other safety procedures, and praised the city agencies for being “on the pulse of what is happening with our kids.” The member said the mayor discussed a 250th-anniversary collaboration involving the district and that police and fire representatives are “there for our kids” and want to keep students safe.
The remarks were made during board member comments and were presented as a summary of the safety meeting rather than a formal agenda item. No specific new policies or expenditures were proposed on the public record at the June 11 meeting.
