Governor Andrew M. Cuomo Monday announced approval of 96 Smart Schools Investment Plans aimed at improving school security and reimagining teaching and learning for the 21st century. The approved plans, totaling $85 million, are part of the $2 billion Smart Schools Bond Act—a sweeping education technology initiative first proposed by the Governor and overwhelmingly approved by voters. The investments authorized today will help ensure safety, modernize classrooms across New York, and equip students with the skills they need to thrive in the global economy.
"The Smart Schools Bond Act is enhancing school safety and modernizing outdated classrooms in every corner of New York State," Governor Cuomo said. "This funding expands opportunity and provides students with the skills and technology they need to succeed in the 21st century economy."
Bolivar-Richburg school will receive $589,393. Of that $43,550 will go to school connectivity and $$545,843 to go toward classroom technology.
