Leadership from the New York Power Authority (NYPA) and Red Hook Central School District joined together at the Mill Road Elementary School to announce the completed installation of three rooftop solar systems at the district’s elementary, middle and high schools.
The $1.7 million solar arrays have a combined direct current capacity of 600 kW.
“NYPA’s partnership with Red Hook schools’ reflects our shared commitment to sustainability and teaching the next generation about climate action,” says NYPA president and CEO Justin E. Driscoll.
“Working with the Red Hook district has been extremely rewarding for NYPA, and the new solar energy systems will reduce greenhouse gas emissions and energy costs for the district.”
In total, 1,200 panels were constructed on the rooftops at the Mill Road Elementary School, Linden Avenue Middle School and Red Hook High School. NYPA financed the projects and awarded Red Hook Central School district with a $40,000 grant to support their construction. The systems, constructed by New York-based Solar Liberty, are the first NYPA-supported solar projects in Dutchess County.

We’ve all heard ideas like the one being expressed here, though this one sounds extreme. Jail sentence? Education is exclusively an exercise in pounding in bad habits?
What’s the outcome for students in the very worst of our schools that make no attempt whatsoever to help its pupils learn to think critically? Well, their kids learn to:
- Read and write
- Do math, at least through algebra
- Understand some level of history and geography
- Make friends and get along with others
- Establish independence from the parents
- Gain the qualifications for employment
What’s the alternative? Illiteracy? Social isolation? Child labor? Poverty? Neurotic sloth? Being a burden on society?
Is it a coincidence that the countries with the best educated children are the happiest, sanest and most productive nations on the planet?
If you’re a competent woman working at the highest echelon in the U.S. government, better start packing your bags.
Today we had another “assassination attempt.”
Is it the fourth or the fifth? I lost track after his ear grew back.
Eventually, after perhaps 20 or 30, even the most dimwitted American will recognize that he’s been played.
Trump is a man of God like I’m a bald eagle.
How Much Further Does the Trust of the American People Extend?
