MASSENA â The Massena Central School Districtâs community schools director had the opportunity recently to talk with state officials about the positive impact the Community Schools initiative has had in the district.
Kristin Colarusso-Martin had been invited to meet with members of the state Assembly and Senate Education Committee, New York City Education Committee, and state Assembly and Senate staff.
The invitation came in collaboration with New York State United Teachers so the legislative leaders could learn more about the critical role community schools played, the services provided by the initiative, and the work that had been done before and during the COVID-19 pandemic.
