State-appointed monitors in
the East Ramapo Central School District are receiving more power from the
governor.
Gov. Andrew
Cuomo signed legislation to allow them to overrule or veto school board decisions
that violate state laws or fail to follow
the district’s improvement plan.
State Sen. Elijah Reichlin-Melnick says it’s a milestone for
East Ramapo children and families deprived of high-quality public education.
The legislation is in effect until June 2025.
