Thinking of you and Beverly.

Schools should step in because parents don't? No.

"School officials are trying to track down recent dropouts, ringing their doorbells and visiting them in jail."

This deal was crafted behind closed doors in the middle of the night. What are we applauding? The secrecy or the disregard for the NY public?

Give the dog to the registered owner. If the dog isn't registered, look at recent vet records. If those don't exist, the dog would be better off with a new family.

I have so many questions but also have children at home so can't attend. Here my top question:

What ideas do candidates have for bringing in tax-paying businesses to allow relief for overly-taxed homeowners?

46.7% of my monthly mortgage payment goes to Schenectady. Why would anyone want to become a new homeowner in the city?

For a while, the Schdy PD had photos on their website and also used Twitter to post arrest reports and outstanding warrants. That stopped at least a year ago and seems like a low cost way of getting the faces out to the public.

I had a teen that would lock himself into his room to avoid going to school (he bought and installed a slide lock). I begged the school for help but there was no truancy officer at that time. It's wonderful to see that the issue is finally being taken seriously.
