Q: How much would the project cost taxpayers?
A: The proposed $98 million proposal, which addresses the most critical infrastructure improvements in all seven school buildings and five non-instructional buildings, will have zero tax impact for our district residents.
The capital project would be paid for with no additional taxes due to further reductions in debt service, high levels of NYS building aid, and use of the District's capital reserve (savings for projects).
The capital project vote will take place on Dec. 5 from 6 a.m. - 9 p.m. at CVE. Learn more at https://www.mw.k12.ny.us/page/capital-improvement-program-december-2023
REMINDER: Please mark your calendars for early dismissals and school closings.✅

Nearly 30% of home buyers list school quality as a deciding factor in their home purchase. As a homeowner, you’d like to know about all of the factors (internal and external) that impact your property value — and your school district is a big one.
Residents will vote on the proposed capital improvement project from 6 a.m. - 9 p.m. at CVE on Tuesday, Dec. 5. Learn more at https://www.mw.k12.ny.us/page/capital-improvement-program-december-2023

Staff members from the Transportation Department and the Education Center met at the Bus Garage to deliver their donations of 390 handmade blankets destined for the arms of children who are "seriously ill, traumatized, or otherwise in need.”
Project Linus has donated more than 9 million blankets to "children in hospitals, shelters, social service agencies, or anywhere that a child might be in need of a big hug" since 1995 and M-W has been supporting their mission for several years. We are proud of our "blanketeers" for their kindness and caring, and for the many hours spent creating this mountain of hugs!💜🤗
Crusaders represent!💞🙏
