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.

Student reads a poem in the DPS LibrarySecond graders at Donald P. Sutherland Elementary School hosted a poetry slam in the school library on Friday, reading aloud their original poems about family, pets, the weather and more.

Students had been learning about poetry in class and wrote their own poems during the unit of study. They also used technology skills learned in library class to make introduction and background slides to display while reading the poems to their classmates.

“The students were so excited and proud to share their poems with family and friends,” said 2nd grade teachers Stephanie Gardinier and Jenna VanRoy. “The poetry slam was a big success.”
