Guilderland’s draft school budget for next year, projected at $98 million, will add teachers and restore some programs that were cut in recent years.

 For the first time, members of the Guilderland School Board raised complaints themselves and voted against a proposed textbook.

Over 1,000 people filled out an online survey about budget priorities for the Guilderland school district, but less than 20 turned out for a forum to discuss the results.

The newest language spoken by Guilderland students who are learning English is Chuukese, an Austronesian language found in the islands of Micronesia.

The community was heard, Superintendent Marie Wiles said on Friday

The Guilderland school district is proposing to use $30,000 to repair the cobblestone schoolhouse on Route 146 in Guilderland Center, to prevent its deterioration. 

How do kids in a co-taught classroom — one in which kids with disabilities learn alongside those without — really feel about the class?

A 40-plus-year tradition — of taking the entire eighth-grade class to the high-school for a free performance of the Guilderland Players’ musical — was done away with recently, and not everyone is happy about it.

The Guilderland school district anticipates being able to add new items to next year’s budget and wants to hear from residents, through its online survey, about what those should be.
