The Newburgh City School District Board of Education meeting opened with roll call and a district presentation marking Hispanic Heritage Month featuring elementary through high-school performances and student projects. The board moved into executive session on personnel, FERPA and collective bargaining matters, then returned for public comments where a community advocate urged the board to adopt a fuller set of NYSSBA policy recommendations to better protect students. District staff reported on Red Ribbon Week, a trunk-or-treat event, and a detailed capital projects update focused on the new CTE building and nearing-completion locker-room renovations. The board approved multiple routine consent items, adopted several policies by roll call, added and approved a retainer for outside counsel on pending appeals, and heard a student board member report on school events.
