In a surprise move, Briarcliff schools' superintendent Neal Miller will be resigning effective June 30, only two years into his five-year contract. The reasons are not known. High school principal James Kaishian will move up as interim superintendent and the school's assistant principal, Debora French, will move into Mr. Kaishian's spot. The Croton-Harmon train station parking lot is jumping into the twenty first century with the advent of license plate readers to replace the sticky tags currently in use by permit holders. The new system is scheduled to go into effect June 1. Ossining will hold a public hearing on approximately $3 million in necessary budget cuts. Please share your thoughts on Wednesday, January 23, at 7:30 p.m. at the Claremont school.
