A little article in the Record gushes about how district enrollment "swells" to a "whopping 12,653 students". That is still less than 2003-04 enrollment of 12,716. The article also mentions:
And along with all those teens and tykes, the Newburgh district added 100 new teaching positions, paid for in large part by the state's Contract for Excellence initiatives.
100 new positions is substantial. Were all these new positions comfortably accommodated in the district's existing buildings?
