S T A T E O F N E W Y O R K ________________________________________________________________________ 8131 I N S E N A T E June 14, 2016 ___________ Introduced by Sen. CARLUCCI -- read twice and ordered printed, and when printed to be committed to the Committee on Rules AN ACT relating to supplementary funding for dedicated programs for public school students in the East Ramapo central school district; providing an appropriation therefor; and providing for the repeal of such provisions upon expiration thereof THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM- BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. Legislative intent. The legislature finds and determines that over the course of many years there have been dramatic changes in the demographics in the town of Ramapo, Rockland county. The number of residents in the town has dramatically increased, swelling the size of the East Ramapo central school district to over 30,000 students. Nearly 2/3 of those students do not, however, attend the public school system. In 2015 the state education department, pursuant to its powers and duties, appointed three monitors to the district, led by the former chancellor of the New York City school district. The legislature further finds and determines that in order to continue moving the dialogue in the right direction, with the ultimate goal of improving the outcomes of all students within the district, the appointment of moni- tors should continue. This legislation continues the appointment of monitors in the East Ramapo central school district. Finally, the legis- lature finds that this legislation has received general support from the school board and the community as a whole. S 2. Definitions. As used in this act: (a) "commissioner" shall mean commissioner of education; (b) "department" shall mean state education department; (c) "board of education" or "board" shall mean the board of education of the East Ramapo central school district; (d) "school district" or "district" shall mean the East Ramapo central school district; and (e) "superintendent" shall mean the superintendent of the East Ramapo central school district. (f) "comptroller" shall mean the state comptroller. EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [ ] is old law to be omitted.
