Board of Education
Your Board of Education is composed of nine residents who have been elected by the qualified voters of the Kingston City School District. The Board is vested with the responsibility of setting education policy and carrying out the mandates of the New York State Education Department. The members serve without remuneration.
We are dedicated to ensuring that every child feels safe, respected, and supported by intentionally providing opportunities to develop social, emotional, and cognitive skills, fostering a true sense of belonging within the school.
We are committed to ensuring that every child is engaged in meaningful learning that is relevant and reflective of their unique experiences and has the opportunity and authority to drive and shape their own learning journey.
