School districts across the Hudson Valley are finding out how much federal aid they will get from the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan, dollars that can be used for a wide range of costs related to the pandemic.
Needier districts will get substantially more money, as the allotments are based on the federal Title I formula, which measures the total number of school-age children in a district who come from poverty.
In Dutchess County, more than $50.3 million is estimated, with each district receiving funding. Poughkeepsie is expected to receive the most money, at an estimated $14.6 million, according to totals circulated by Sen. Chuck Schumer s office.
We have the opportunity for more targeted contact tracing, Hyde Park Superintendent Aviva Kafka said at a school board meeting Thursday. A few weeks ago, the consensus was we should continue with the approach we ve been using, since our approach was so successful . over the past few weeks we are hearing from folks they are rethinking that.
She said the plan, approved by the Dutchess County Department of Behavioral and Community Health and to be implemented after spring break, calls for quarantining students only when one of them comes within a six-foot radius of an individual who tested positive, rather than everyone in a given room or building.

What Happened to The Poughkeepsie Tapes?
I love a scary movie just as much as the next person, but when it has a Hudson Valley focus I m even more intrigued.
Just like every one who grew up in Dutchess County throughout the 90s, I was obsessed with serial killer Kendal Francois. Okay, obsessed is the wrong word. I learned about the case in a high school forensics class and me and my friends were shocked that these women were murdered, in such a gruesome way in our own backyard.
If you re not familiar with the Kendal Francois case,
I suggest you Google it. But be warned, there are some triggering details about the case.
