The Encyclopedia of New York State is trying to assemble data tables on various subjects and we are finding a surprisingly difficult time finding reliable information on some basic things. Our current need is to find a reliable source of information on the organization dates of extant school districts. Telephone calls to school district offices reveal that many have no idea when they were organized. Other districts provide dates that contradict published sources. Does anyone out there know of a reliable source for the date of organization of the various school districts in New York State?
