Beekmantown Central School District

This handbook outlines the Beekmantown Central School District's Multi-Tiered System of Support (MTSS) model, a comprehensive framework integrating academics, behavior, and social-emotional learning. The plan is structured around a three-tiered system (universal, targeted, intensive) with a strong foundation in quality Tier I instruction. Key focus areas include universal screening, data-driven decision-making, progress monitoring, and specific intervention pathways for reading, math, and social-emotional support. The overarching goal is to proactively identify and support at-risk students through evidence-based practices, fostering successful educational outcomes and overall student wellness.

The board meeting included discussions on strategic planning, recognition of graduating seniors, and the unified basketball game. Updates were provided on data requests and board member recognition. The budget for 2024-2025 was reviewed, highlighting the strategic priorities of cultivating a thriving school community and being a future-ready district. The tax levy for 2025-2026 will see an increase of 3.85%, remaining under the tax levy limit. There was also a discussion regarding the equalization rate for the town of Plattsburgh.

The meeting included presentations of tenure plaques for administrators and recognition of retirees with a combined 118 years of service. There was also recognition of board members for their service. Additionally, there was a presentation on the special education program.
