Kate Wetherhead, an actress who originated the roles of Kate and Chutney in the Broadway production of “Legally Blonde,” spoke to Voorheesville students on Wednesday.
After four decades of “preaching the gospel of school-boardsmanship,” Timothy Kremer, the former executive director of the New York State School Boards Association, decided it was time to get in the trenches.
After two students alerted Voorheesville school administrators on Monday to a threatening message they had found written on a bathroom mirror at the middle and high school campus, the Albany County Sheriff’s Office was called and bomb-sniffing dogs were brought in.
Labor and management came to an agreement in Voorheesville, as the teachers’ union and school district signed a five-year agreement; teachers had been working without a contract for 18 months.
