Ontario, Walworth are Looking at Reducing the Number of Elementary Schools
Wednesday, August 19 2009
ONTARIO – The Wayne Central School District, in partnership with the
Towns of Ontario and Walworth, is exploring the feasibility of reducing
their three current elementary buildings to a single enlarged school on
the existing Ontario Primary site. Providing better educational
opportunities to students, saving money for the taxpayers and a
declining enrollment were cited as the main reasons for exploring this
opportunity. At a recent board meeting of the Wayne Central School
Board, the Ontario Town Board and the Walworth Town Board, Wayne Board
President, Joyce Lyke stated that the plan would provide additional
opportunities to students, such as an elementary foreign language
program, while preserving a low tax rate.

Mayor's Corner With Vicky Daly

Working on Multiple Fronts
A resident commented to me this morning that the parades and festivals
are just fine, but the village should work to bring in businesses.
That’s what we need. His words startled me because the village is, has
been, and will continue to work to bring businesses and the jobs they
create to Palmyra. The revolving loan fund, established through a
Governor’s Office of Small Cities grant several years ago, enables us
to offer micro-enterprise loans to qualified current and potential
business owners in the village. You have probably seen the “We Are
Investing in Palmyra’s Future” signboards in front of participating
businesses after the loan is awarded.
