Since the beginning of the school year, the COVID-19 pandemic has tested local school districts.
Teachers and administrators have been forced to rethink education, but in doing so, they ve also fostered innovation, creating elements of pandemic learning which could become permanent fixtures of their learning models.
Now, district leaders across the Southern Tier look to the end of the 2020-2021 school year on the horizon with a shared goal: as many students in the school buildings for as many days a week they can safely manage.
Getting there will look different in every district, their paths driven by the particular and in some cases contrasting challenges faced by rural, urban and suburban schools.
COVID brought a year of tests for Southern Tier schools and students

(
Albany, NY) Today, the Senate Majority will pass its one-house budget resolution that delivers emergency aid to help New York recover from the COVID-19 pandemic and invests in a brighter, more equitable future by fully funding essential services and putting more money in the pockets of working and middle-class families. The Senate resolution increases total school aid by $5.7 billion, provides billions in residential and commercial rental and foreclosure assistance, restores critical funding to our health care system, and jumpstarts our economy with investments in transportation and small businesses. The Senate Majority’s proposal asks the wealthiest New Yorkers to pay their fair share rather than balancing the budget on the backs of working families.
