Liberty Central School District recently received a $525,000 three-year grant to help our students who are experiencing housing insecurity.
The grant is part of the  New York State Education Department’s distribution of $8 million in federal funding to educational institutions through the federal McKinney-Vento Homeless Education Act.

WJFF and Radio Catskill interviewed Liberty CSD Director of Student Services Deborah DeGraw and McKinney-Vento Outreach Coordinator Dawn Hurley about the grant and how it will be used at Liberty.
