ALBANY – The Saugerties
school district is the only one of 16 high-need districts around the state
to receive funding to increase access to quality pre-kindergarten for
three- and four-year-old students.
The district will receive $265,054 for that purpose.
Funding was awarded to school districts based on the quality of the application
and other factors, including district and student need, efforts to target
the highest need students, and efforts to maximize total number of children
served in pre-K programs.
