Board of Education

As you know, Dave Merandy was recently sworn in to the Town Board and on January 3, 2012 formally submitted his letter of resignation to the Haldane School Board.  At last night’s school board meeting we agreed to accept applications for the vacancy per NYS Education Law. At this time we do feel the need to fill the five-member board through an appointment until the next district election on May 15, 2012. The Board “prefers” a candidate who will seek re-election at that time. Please click on the link below to continue reading.

Curriculum maps are now available on-line! Curriculum maps explain what we teach, when we teach it and the skills that students need to acquire. It is the desire of the district to provide a well articulated curriculum K - 12 that supports teachers and parents on behalf of our students. This is the first year that we are providing curriculum maps to parents, and therefore we anticipate revisions throughout the year as we monitor the effectiveness of the maps.
