Jeanette Wolfberg reports in The Columbia Paper that starting in September second grade in Hudson moves from the from John L. Edwards Primary School to the Montgomery C. Smith Intermediate School. The Jan. 23 vote is the latest effort to consolidate the district from three campuses to two. Eventually the pre-kindergarten through first grade would also move when an addition to the MCS building is constructed. Then, the Junior/Senior High would be for 6th through 12th grades, and MCS for pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. “We hope to get the construction out to bid in August and September,” said John Sharkey of Rhinebeck Architecture at the meeting.
