PARISHVILLE -- The Parishville Central School Board of Education Monday approved an increase for schools lunches from $2.35 to $2.45 for next year.

Board members also approved the PHCS Teachers' Association Contract.

There are two candidates for the two open board seats that will be up for election on May 15. Ward Remington and Christina Snell will seek board seats.

The school budget vote will also be held May 15. Parishville-Hopkinton Central School plans to stay within the tax cap, at 3.59 percent, but does not anticipate adding or cutting any positions. The increase is $10.76 per $50,000 assessed value (with STAR), according to school officials.

Included in the proposed budget is the financing of an additional full-sized bus and purchase of a small bus, as part of a bus replacement plan. The budget will also replace a 30 year-old tractor used for snow removal and other purposes.

The BoE also approved an art field trip to the National Gallery in Ottawa. This will be a joint trip with Colton-Pierrepont Central.
