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.

Bell Top Elementary School is currently without water, and in accordance with NYS Education Department regulations, the school day cannot continue if there is no running water. Therefore, Bell Top is being evacuated. All students are being transported by school bus, and accompanied by teachers and staff, to Genet Elementary School.

Bell Top students will be brought home by bus from Genet at the normal dismissal time.

Parents or emergency contacts may pick up their children from Genet early or at the normal dismissal time. They must have a valid photo ID and emergency contacts must be on the pre-approved list.
