Help Us Shape the Next Capital Project |
We invite Galway CSD community members to help us shape the next Capital Project by participating in the following public input sessions in the Junior/Senior High School Library:- Saturday, May 24, 2025, at 10:00 a.m. for an abbreviated session called Coffee and Questions during the Galway Booster Club Car Wash and Can Drive fundraiser
Following the defeat of the Capital Project that was proposed in December 2023, the Board of Education Facilities Committee members have been listening to residents’ concerns and discussing the infrastructure needs that were not included in the 2016 Capital Project.
- The majority of these needs were identified as critical in the district’s most recent Building Condition Survey (completed in 2020)
- Some of these needs include work that voters passed in the 2021 Small Capital Project that focused on the bus garage, but could not be completed due to cost escalation during and after the COVID-19 pandemic
For archival information on all of our recent Capital Projects, and information on the work that is being considered for the next Capital Project, please click on the Facilities webpage here
Congratulations to the Varsity Softball team as they are now ranked #7 in the State Class C rankings.
Congratulations to Avery Menge, as she was selected by the Times Union as one of the top performers of the week for her performance throwing a no-hitter last week.
