SCHOOL CLOSINGS

School closings, delays and schedule changes in Hudson Valley

Voters will be heading to the polls TODAY to decide on the North Rockland Central School District budget.
The budget would leave more than 100 teachers and aides without a job while raising property taxes for residents of Haverstraw by 7.6 percent. Taxes for Stony Point residents would be reduced.
Officials say the budget is necessary after a reduction in state and federal aid to the district, but some residents are questioning why the district isn't tapping its $80 million in reserve funds to help close the budget gap.
Polls will be open from 6:30 a.m. - 9:00 p.m.
