School Budget Vote and Board Election - May 21

The East Greenbush CSD has proposed a school budget for 2024-25 that maintains all programs and services with a 0.55% tax levy increase, which is within the NYS Property Tax Cap. Residents will also vote on a $116 million capital project that would improve school facilities and grounds across the district with no impact to local taxpayers, the replacement of eight school buses, which if approved by voters, will be fully paid for by the Bus Purchase Reserve Fund, and elect three individuals to the Board of Education.

The issue at Red Mill which forced an evacuation earlier this morning has been resolved. The fire department has tested all areas of the building and cleared it for a return to occupancy, therefore, students will be bused back to Red Mill to continue the school day.

Normal lunch will be served.

All students who were evacuated from Red Mill have arrived at Genet. They are being supervised by teachers and staff and will be watching a movie in the auditorium.

National Grid responded to Red Mill and identified the issue with a hot water tank. Our Facilities Department is working on the issue and a determination about the remainder of the school day will be made in the next two hours whether students will return to Red Mill or students will be dismissed early for the day.

UPDATE
Monday, June 5 – 9:12 a.m.

The Red Mill Kindergarten field trip to Animal Land is still on for today. Buses will be leaving at 9:30 a.m. from Genet Elementary School. Chaperones should report to Animal Land according to the original plans.

ORIGINAL POST
Monday, June 5 – 8:57 a.m.

Due to a smell of gas inside Red Mill Elementary School, the building has been evacuated. All students (including Pre-K and GCC) have been temporarily relocated to the playground and will be bused to Genet Elementary School.
