Peru School e-mail server down
PERU — Peru Central School District has been notified by the Northeastern Regional Information Center that its e-mail server unit experienced hardware failure and requires replacement.
The unit had been in place since 2005. It will take a week to 10 days before the new unit is delivered and ready to connect to Peru's information technology network, according to Peru Central Superintendent of Schools A. Paul Scott.
The district is working with the Northeastern Regional Information Center to restore e-mail service on a temporary basis via other means.
Parent conferences next week will continue as previously scheduled.
The district is asking parents and guardians who wish to communicate with staff to use the telephone until a temporary fix is put into place.

Port Henry dissolution discussion tonight
PORT HENRY — Residents of the Village of Port Henry will learn about the fiscal and tax impacts of dissolving the village at a public forum tonight.
The meeting will be at 7 p.m. at the Knights of Columbus building at 4253 Main St. in Port Henry.
A joint village-town Dissolution Study Committee has been conducting a dissolution study since early fall with assistance from a study consultant, the Rochester-based Center for Governmental Research.
The study team will discuss estimated cost savings if the village dissolves; tax impact of dissolution for both village and town taxpayers; impact on village services; and the next steps in the study process.
The Village Board is expected to put dissolution up for a vote in March 2010.
