WAMC hosts Vox Pop on School Boards and School Budgets

The day after New York State voters went to the polls to approve school budgets and elect board members, WAMC turned its regular afternoon Vox Pop show over to a call-in with Tim Kremer , Executive Director of the New York State School Boards Association). Calls came in from across the full spectrum of concerns, including many of the issues that were discussed during the Onteora School District election campaign. You can listen to or download the show at this link.

Early on in the show, Mr. Kremer says that, State Wide, voter turn-out averages 5-10%. Turn-out in the Onteora Central School District was closer to 40%. Everyone in the campaign is very grateful for this massive show of interest in the Onteora Central School District.
