NEW SCOTLAND — John Livingston was a proud and accomplished man who served his country in war. And, like so many growing up amid the Great Depression, he was shaped by it but still came away with “some great stories.”

The Voorheesville School Board approved a $26 million spending plan for the 2020-21 school year, which comes with a 3.14-percent levy increase — if voters approve it.
