Regionalization Information
New York State Education Department Regionalization Initiative
In September 2024, the New York State Education Department (NYSED) issued guidance for all New York State school districts to fill out a survey as a first step. The intention of the survey is for NYSED to identify opportunities for collaboration that might result in cost-saving efficiencies or greater educational opportunities for students in our region. The deadline for the completion of the survey is December 6, 2024. School district officials will attend meetings to explore potential regional collaborations beginning sometime after November 1, 2024. Each region will ultimately develop a plan that is due by October 2025 with an interim report due in April of 2025.
NYSED has created a specific web page with details about their initiative.
As new information becomes available, we will update this page. See below for the latest updates.
