South Seneca Elementary School

“I am extremely grateful to the South Seneca Teachers Association leadership for arranging this visit from NYSUT and AFT to advocate for our district,” Zielinski said. “As everyone understands by now, the Governor's proposal to end Save Harmless – and to actually decrease foundation aid for a High Needs district like South Seneca-- was both unexpected and extreme. If it is adopted into the official state budget without revision, it would be devastating for our programs." https://www.southseneca.org/article/1501567
