Leah Martes, a senior and two‑year council member representing girls tennis, said the council meets every “C day” during community lunch to focus on community, character and communication and that one of the council’s goals is “to share what we learn so that we can help… foster other future leaders.”

Samantha Lani, a senior and member of the communications and vendors groups, described event logistics and said the 5K will include a new route through Cornwall and that the district expanded relay races to include kindergarten through eighth grade. “We will be having relay races from kindergarten to eighth grade,” she said. Karis Addison, a senior representing activities, highlighted planned games — including Gaga ball, spike ball and a dunk tank — and encouraged volunteers.

Avery Greer, a junior and first‑year council member, described the council’s fundraising efforts and named several local sponsors students had recruited, including radio station K‑104, Gross Beach Clinic and Hardin Sheet Metal. Leah Martes said this year’s Dragon Day will include more than 10 vendors, “which is like triple from last year.”

Administrators lauded the students’ work. A board member noted the council’s growth since the program started three years ago and praised its sustainability, saying the leadership council now requires much less daily adult prompting.

The students asked the public to attend on Sunday, May 18, beginning at 9 a.m.; the presentation listed the event time as 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. and identified the middle school as the location.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","CCSD Board of Education Business Meeting on Thursday , May 6th, 2025 @ 7:00 PM","oneSentenceSummary","Members of Cornwall Central School District’s student Athletic Leadership Council presented details of Dragon Day — a student‑run community event with a 5K, relay races, vendors and activities — set for May 18 at the middle school.","taxTitle","CORNWALL CENTRAL SCHOOL DISTRICT, School Districts, New York","taxId",60462,"location","New York","headline","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":56,"_74":56},6245273,"Board awards security‑guard contract to Snoop Investigations after vendor exit",114,1134000,1248000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3226797-ebe6db254627b0b91cb866da12e369f3&start=1134&end=1248","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3226797-ebe6db254627b0b91cb866da12e369f3/thumbnail_1134000.jpg","/articles/6245273/New-York/Board-awards-securityguard-contract-to-Snoop-Investigations-after-vendor-exit","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6245273-b603de90e32ea33ec2aca405412a702d/orig.mp4?Expires=1771122056&Signature=ZEWFwxyvH2X8fuErIlVmtY57~6ogqFLg5R6HzVdM0ihQ3BrfolmnrZCZyBPzMgBBQ6ahuMC~8PCljzzgInnC1Lja~Hm7PWm75bSJR3dI4pzsLZH2W9lnMPGGYu-jHxajq9rPB5OMtBew0WX~QktgygXHzaMI08xOYCGsjsThJkE58IStbC5a45Wqdz5VrDICPU7YxSWqTjwUdCKQcAyPczotxGWbRwAFZsECeEAPHtDcFXfIfqsM8YmsixacXrUhAw87yVW9eAKBO2Ypx-UHdfeoKoV8GfTCPKpMHNQejqoV4WJQtRNmvoxgh7C~Uk0Dx1Lq8SjwqeBUkQG71QRmjA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Cornwall Central School District Board of Education voted to award RFP 2025‑2 for security‑guard services to Snoop Investigations and Security as part of the consent agenda at its May 6 work session.

Jim, board member, explained the district is changing contractors because the district’s longtime provider, DDT, “will no longer be in business at the end of the year.” He said the current security staff had been offered an opportunity to interview with the incoming firm and urged the board’s hope that “most, if not all, of those folks can come to an agreement with the new firm.”

Christian, board member, seconded that sentiment, adding that people who “know our community, know our schools, know our students” are a valuable part of the district and that he hoped the staff would remain in place under the new contractor.

The board took a voice vote on the resolution to award RFP 2025‑2 to Snoop Investigations and Security. The chair called for “All in favor?” and members responded “Aye.” No opposition or abstentions were recorded in the meeting transcript.

The award was handled as part of the consent agenda; board members noted they would table a separate consent item (item 8) for a later meeting. The transcript did not record the motion’s maker or seconder for the security‑services resolution, nor did it record a roll‑call tally.","The Cornwall board voted to award RFP 2025‑2 for security‑guard services to Snoop Investigations and Security after longtime contractor DDT announced it will close; board members urged the new contractor to offer current staff interviews.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":56,"_74":56},6245277,"Cornwall board previews $92.99 million budget before May 20 vote",1020,1626000,2646000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3226797-ebe6db254627b0b91cb866da12e369f3&start=1626&end=2646","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3226797-ebe6db254627b0b91cb866da12e369f3/thumbnail_1626000.jpg","/articles/6245277/New-York/Cornwall-board-previews-9299-million-budget-before-May-20-vote","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6245277-351227cb218776ae0789015053b5115b/orig.mp4?Expires=1771122056&Signature=Kb3OKx0FwwFastJJzIEPxK6tPFUS~esqtU1nTbnjdK2BQn~7QM6dyIaSWxnSngeyOTOYzzJvOhF0x7vRZZzk~Nj7pNRFpa9U22-rD4qCaRm-4~puelu-l53S0BgS7w3jPiuSQWPeYc89Z8fgRmexXbEKz~XUlOGVF9TX4yF2k1wVQzqXG6Xfxi8gFhpfKWRRnbB~HKXDfep5Uv8nifByYUNvrZCVeCJ41pRFVOtit4LZHpyVqdOtneVazefkrIObjcH~m6DAFv9Vrb6KifPqGQ-kRn2upIEteFcQkbRxWmZHnhafJzut6jgl083YCP7nzh1kvApWRLK2qcXHOhxsAg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","At a May 6 budget hearing, the Cornwall Central School District presented a proposed $92,986,803 budget and urged district voters to cast ballots in a May 20 budget vote.

John, assistant superintendent for business and budget, told the Board of Education the proposed budget is organized in the three required components — administrative, program and capital — and reflects an adopted tax‑levy increase of 2.75 percent that the board used to arrive at its revenue projections.

The budget matters because it determines next year’s school staffing, services and capital work and will be decided by district voters on May 20. The board has already adopted the spending plan to go out to the public, and the hearing provided the public review required by state rules.

John summarized the proposed figures and assumptions: $92,986,803 in proposed expenditures and about $90,497,199 in projected revenues, with the board proposing to use an assigned fund balance of roughly $2,489,604 to balance the numbers. He said the board’s adopted tax‑levy increase is 2.75 percent; the presentation noted a higher statutory maximum tax‑levy growth factor of 3.08 percent.

On revenue, John said the district expects an increase of a little more than $1 million in state aid and about $232,000 more in miscellaneous revenue, but final state aid figures were still pending at the time of the hearing. He also described contingency options if voters reject the budget, saying a contingent budget would require program and spending reductions and could be adopted at a 0 percent tax‑levy increase.

John highlighted a potential state budget change that would provide free breakfast and lunch for all kindergarten through 12th‑grade students and cited a reported statewide appropriation of $340 million; he presented an estimate that universal breakfast and lunch could save individual families more than $1,000 per child annually, depending on participation.

Board members and staff also reviewed a ballot proposition to establish a new capital reserve (the district identified this as capital reserve number three) and discussed ongoing special‑education placements and final contract settlement items. John reminded the public that detailed budget documents and presentations are available on the district website and urged eligible voters to vote May 20 between 6 a.m. and 9 p.m. at the Bridal School polling site listed by the district.

The hearing included questions about the tax‑cap calculation and whether state funds would be provided for any new mandates; John said the district believes it could meet likely requirements without major additional cost but noted superintendents would seek clarity and funding from the state for new mandates.

The board previously adopted the budget to proceed to a public vote; formal adoption by voters is scheduled for May 20.","The Cornwall Central School District presented a $92,986,803 proposed budget at a May 6 hearing; the board approved a 2.75% tax‑levy increase to send the budget to a public vote May 20 and outlined contingency steps and a new capital reserve proposition.","actionData","errors"]
