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.

20 Educators Recognized at Tenure Ceremony

Jun 8, 2023 | Bell Top, Columbia, District, Genet, Goff, Green Meadow, Red Mill, Sutherland

2023 Tenure recipientsTwenty educators including teachers, teaching assistants and administrators have earned tenure this school year after successfully completing a four-year probationary period of effective instruction and evaluation. They each were recognized at Wednesday’s Board of Education meeting in the Columbia High School auditorium.

“It is a challenging process to earn tenure,” said Superintendent Jeff Simons during the ceremony. “It is not an automatic. It certainly is not an automatic in the East Greenbush Central School District. So the individuals who are being honored this evening and receiving recognition from our board are well deserving.”

Congratulations!
