The New York State Safe Schools Against Violence in Education (SAVE) law requires school districts to develop a school safety plan to prevent or minimize the effects of serious violent incidents, natural and man-made disasters, declared state disaster emergencies involving a communicable disease, local public health emergency declarations, and other emergencies. Project SAVE is a comprehensive planning effort that addresses prevention, response, and recovery with respect to a variety of emergencies in school districts. As part of this process, the Schuylerville Central School District annually updates and posts its District-Wide Safety Plan for public review and comment prior to Board of Education adoption.
A public hearing on the 2025–26 District-Wide Safety Plan was held on Monday, Aug. 18. However, due to a late requirement from the New York State Education Department, all school districts must now revise their plans to incorporate a new cardiac arrest annex law. As a result, Schuylerville CSD has updated its draft plan and re-released it for an additional 30-day public comment period.
