"We must focus on our schools to create a better New York, and that means providing every child the opportunity to succeed through new and innovative programs. This year, I will continue to support smart and fair reforms to strengthen school aid and our public education system.

In this newsletter you will discover more information about the education initiatives I've supported in our community, along with information on allocated grants to our schools. I extend my best wishes to the children and their families for a successful school year, and I thank you for your continued support of our education system."
