  Brian Howard, the superintendent of the Queensbury Union Free School district, said he learned of the threat at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday after the FBI was alerted to the posting by a tipster.Howard said the FBI involvement heightened the response at the school to the threat.
  
  "You know 98 percent of these things won't be real but you have to operate as if it is the 2 percent," Howard said.
  
  State police and the FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force in Albany worked overnight to trace the computer message to a Queensbury residence.The 13-year-old boy living there told police he posted the message and made a similar threat to injure a classmate, but he acted alone and did not have access to firearms.
  
  Howard said he learned of the arrest at 5:15 a.m. today.

  As is true with many school districts throughout Sullivan County, increases in the proposed budget are caused, for the most part, by contractual obligations and increases in health insurance and fuel costs, said Superintendent Brian Howard. In order to help meet the increased graduation standards for students, the district is adding two new full-time teaching positions to the staff and increasing an additional position from halftime to full-time. At the elementary school level, a reading and writing teacher’s position is being increased. The new positions include a remedial math teacher for the middle school and a new high school math teacher. “This is a very basic and very responsible budget,” said Howard. “We tried to balance the needs of the students with the resources within the community. If we are forced to reduce this budget further, we’ll be hurting programs.” Howard said that the late state budget once again posed problems for the school board and district officials as they tried to anticipate the amount of state aid money that would be available for the district in the coming year. He also said the state has yet to meet its obligations to supply additional funds to help school districts meet the new state educational guidelines and tougher standards.

  In his opening remarks, district superintendent Dr. Brian Howard said that his bag of "treats" this year was filled to overflowing with Section IX, Class C championship football and boys' basketball banners, as well as watching "a young girls' basketball team that will be champions in their own right in the future." Referring to his office as a "box seat," Howard said that when the mantle of being a district superintendent starts to weigh heavily on his spirit, and the frustration level rises, he shuts the door, pulls a comfortable chair up to the window, and on any given day, can watch up to three games being contested on the playing fields below. "We have a wonderful athletic program at Liberty Cental School," said Howard.

  Schools Superintendent Dr. Brian Howard said the distance learning network, a collaborative effort with schools in Roscoe, Eldred and Tri-Valley, is set up and ready to go when school opens tomorrow. The interactive hookup among the schools allows students in one building to take classes offered by another district that are not available at their own school. Among the course offerings for distance learning students are Latin 1, Chinese language and culture, journalism and a variety of business courses. ãWeâre going to be teaching four classes and receiving three from the other schools involved,ä he said. ãWeâre very excited about the prospects this opens up for students who are involved in the program.ä One of the major events for the upcoming school year is the unveiling of the districtâs strategic plan, a process that began a little less than a year ago. The plan, which was developed by teachers, administrators, school board members, members of the public and students, is scheduled for presentation to the school board and the public late this year or early next year. Howard said it was one of the most important things on this yearâs calendar. This year, students will be meeting 16 new teachers throughout the district. While most of the new faces are replacing existing teachers, two and a half new teaching positions have been added, including math teachers in the middle and high schools and a half-time reading teacher at the White Sulphur Springs school.
  ...
  Howard said, in addition to completing the districtâs strategic plan, the biggest challenge he faces this year as a superintendent is maintaining a close tab on meeting state mandates and standards while keeping offerings available that will create a well-rounded education. ãIf the only thing we do is meet state mandates and standards, weâre not going to provide our students with a complete education,ä he said. ãI know that a complete education demands more than simply meeting standards, and itâs going to require taking a close look at what weâre offering while at the same time looking at the resources we have available and managing them tightly.ä
