Assembly Joins Senate in Approving Aid for Schenevus School

The state assembly approves legislation to aid the Schenevus Central District by authorizing advanced state aid payments and establish a long-term plan to stabilize the school district’s finances. The district is currently operating with a $700,000 budget deficit and state comptroller Thomas DiNapoli recently designated Schenevus as one of five school districts in the state facing significant financial distress. The Senate approved the bill last month.
