In this video, state leaders, educators and parents speak about the opportunities of the Smart Schools Bond Act, a $2-billion dollar investment plan approved by New York taxpayers.
In May 2016, the first round of funding approvals was announced, totaling $45 million dollars for 52 school districts. Upgrades in classroom technology, high-tech security and school and community connectivity will equip all students with the skills needed to thrive in a 21st century economy.
