CECSD Facilities Study

The Cortland Enlarged City School District is committed to the provision of clean, modern, and safe facilities for our students and our community. The Board of Education has engaged the Castallo and Silky firm to conduct a facilities study. The district works with the King & King architectural firm for design work.

The essential question for the facilities study is: "Now and in the future, is there a better way to arrange the grades and school buildings to maintain, and perhaps enhance, the education of Cortland City School District students while ensuring fiscal responsibility to the taxpayer?  If so, how should the grades and schools be organized?"

Committee membership includes: Breck Aspinwall, Anna Bennett, Susan Byrnes, Kevin Cafararo, Nicole Dintino, Sister Harriett Hamilton, Rick Gamel, Lisa Kaup, Stephanie Madden, Roberto Maniaci, Amy Sundheim, Leigh Vandebogart, Karen Williams, and Mark Yacavone.
