Grapevine

In an effort to improve communications the district has created this format to provide people with a place to get answers to questions and to address rumors and inaccurate information that sometimes circulates through the community.

NOT ALL QUESTIONS WILL BE ANSWERED. For individual or private concerns, you should contact the school or district office by phone. We will not answer comments about specific individuals by name.

Questions are e-mailed to the district’s public information office. The PI Officer determines who could best answer the question and directs the question to that person. Once the PIO receives the answer it is posted.

Enter your comments, questions or feedback in the box below.

  • When will the track be open again for public use?

    A. School facilities are closed until the Governor via Executive Order provides that allowance, at which point we will see how we best use facilities to address the needs of students, community programs and typical public use. 

  • Why is graduation a week earlier than anticipated?

    A. Per the Executive Order school was held during what would have been normally scheduled for Good Friday and Spring Break, a total of 6 days. Consequently,  the end of the year was reduced by 6 days. Students attended the same number of days as originally planned.

  • Is graduation cancelled?

    A. The high school and district administration are in the process of planning an event for graduation that will ensure a memorable experience for our seniors. Information will be provided when logistics are finalized.

  • When is the last day of school

    A. Good question. That will be determined, upon further guidance from the New York State Education Department and Governor. 

  • How can I get a copy of my school tax receipt?

    A. https://www.shenet.org/budget-finance/property-taxes/. From there on the right side “look up tax bill.” You can use your last name OR street name to search. Or you can email greeamy@shenschools.org and she can mail it out next time she is in the office.
