Administrators report enrollment, programming and staffing updates; superintendent flags funding pressures
Summary
District administrators reported middle-school enrollment (stated as '233'), professional development activity, IEP coding work, upcoming interviews for middle school principal candidates, a tech-teacher resignation and discussion of SRO costs and state unfunded mandates affecting budgeting.
Administrators presented routine reports across the district covering enrollment figures, professional development and staffing updates.
The middle school report included enrollment numbers and academic recognitions; the presenter stated, "Middle school enrollment, we're at 2 33." Instructional leadership reported on a Nov. 10 professional development day with sessions on collaboration, ed tech and AI tools, plus CPR retraining for nearly 30 staff. The high school leader reported music and winter-sport schedules, the addition of a new planer for the wood shop and ongoing parent–teacher conference participation tracking.
Superintendent remarks covered a range of operational matters and budget pressures: he raised concerns about state mandates and funding for special education and McKinney-Vento services, saying, "in my opinion, they should find a different way to fund special education and McKinney Vento because we have no control over those things." He also discussed outreach with BOCES, an approved Cares audit and the submission of a farm-to-school grant. The superintendent said the district will prepare and share a tentative 2026–27 budget draft at the next meeting.
