community to support the requested purchase. We’ll need to look for alternatives to freeing up space. The architects will look at space at GCC for the District Office. Paul Alioto also mentioned that Dansville has offered to host a P-Tech Academy like what they have in Byron Bergen. We have 2 students that travel a long way over and back and more kids may take advantage if it is local. He is meeting next week to talk about the feasibility of this program. Rick Riggi, School Business Official and Paul Alioto, Superintendent presented updates to the 2017-18 budget.
