Ranzenhofer Announces $299,742 For Sweet Home School District

New York State Senator Michael H. Ranzenhofer has announced today the approval of Sweet Home School District’s Smart School Investment Plan, including $167,992 for high-tech security and $131,750 for classroom technology.

The funding is part of the Smart Schools Bond Act.

“Our children have unlimited potential to succeed, but only if our school districts get their fair share of  state dollars,” said Ranzenhofer. “This investment will turn that potential into reality by ensuring Sweet Home School District gets the best resources to foster student success in a global economy.”

Schools can invest these funds in classroom technology, school connectivity and high-tech security upgrades to better prepare students for success in the 21st century. 

The Smart Schools Review Board is responsible for approval of the plan. In 2014, voters approved the $2 billion statewide school investment to finance educational technology and infrastructure.
