Skoufis and Jacobson also were able to get a waiver for a $155,000 state fine for the district for a years-old paperwork error. After an impossibly trying year for students, parents and teachers, Marlboro families can breathe a sigh of relief today, Skoufis said. The district s financials demanded bold, meaningful action, and we took up the call. I am proud to announce this unprecedented tax cut and massive school aid injection, and as a new father myself, I fought hard to deliver pre-K education for all of our youngest residents.
Beyond the Marlboro district the state budget included $65 million for southern Ulster County school districts, a 10.3% increase in school aid.
