纽约选民和学校董事会决定多项学区预算
Read, Watch or Listen
New York voters and school boards decided multiple district budgets this week, with voting and board actions occurring across the state. On Tuesday, Binghamton voters provisionally approved their school budget, Prattsburgh’s proposed budget failed to reach the required supermajority, and on Wednesday night Buffalo’s school board unanimously passed its 2026-27 budget. The immediate effects vary by district: Menands is asking voters to approve a $13 million-plus 2026-27 budget that includes short-term borrowing for classroom construction tied to a May 2025 capital project and a 2.01% tax levy increase; Buffalo’s $1.2 billion plan uses about $66 million in savings to address an $80 million deficit and includes program eliminations and staff reductions, while Prattsburgh faces program and service uncertainty after the failed vote.
