Assemblyman Brian Curran (Lynbrook-21st A.D.) met with Rockville Centre Union Free School District Superintendent Matt Gaven to commemorate the bullet aid it received from the state. Bullet aid is a type of targeted funding secured by legislators in the state budget to be given to schools and libraries within their districts. Assemblyman Curran was able to secure $20 thousand in aid for The Rockville Centre School District.

“I will always support the Rockville Centre School District and their amazing students and staff. They truly are one of the best school districts in the country and do an amazing job educating the young people of Rockville Centre, which is why I was so ecstatic to be able to present Superintendent Gaven with the funds I was able to secure. He has shared with me some of the projects he plans to complete using these funds and they sound amazing. I cannot wait to see the results of these projects,” said Curran.

“We are grateful to Assemblyman Curran for his work to secure additional aid for our district to improve our community communication systems. As a result of Assemblyman Curran’s work, we are upgrading our website and parent communication systems by purchasing the Parent Square. This integrated system allows the Rockville Centre School District to communicate with parents via text, email and social media. This is particularly useful during school closure situations, ensuring information reaches parents in the medium of their choice,” said Superintendent Gaven.
