Germantown voters approve 2024–25 school budget; Superintendent Bragg announces 162–95 result

Superintendent Bragg announced that Germantown voters approved the Germantown Central School District’s 2024–25 budget, reporting a vote tally of 162 in favor and 95 opposed. She thanked parents and community members for their support.

Bragg said Michael Putney and Lori Crawford have joined the district’s board of education, filling two previously empty seats. She also congratulated the elementary band and chorus, students and teachers, for their Tuesday evening performance.

Bragg reminded families that the district will observe additional no-school days to make up for emergency snow closures; the transcript’s phrasing of the specific make-up dates was unclear. She confirmed a junior/senior awards night will be held Wednesday, May 29 at 6 p.m. at the school.

The announcement was presented as a short community update; no motions, amendments or further board actions were recorded in the transcript beyond the vote totals and staffing announcements.

The district did not provide detailed budget breakdowns or next procedural steps in this address; the superintendent urged families to note the calendar changes and the awards-night date.
