Capital Project 2023
Valley Central School District voters approved a $46,595,000 capital project in two propositions on May 16, 2023. A proposition to allow the Board of Education to establish Capital Reserve Fund 2023 was also passed.
The 2022 Building Condition Survey identified over $150 Million in needed attention around our district.
