​​The Rural Schools Association of New York State (RSA) will host a Rural Schools Issues Forum on Monday, November 24, 2025, from 6:00–8:00 p.m. at the Ballard Road Conference Center, located at 267 Ballard Road, Suite 5, in Wilton. This forum invites educators, administrators, parents, and community members to come together to discuss the unique challenges and opportunities facing rural schools and the communities they serve. The insights gathered will help guide future advocacy efforts and policy recommendations to strengthen rural education across New York State.

RSA Executive Director David Little will serve as the featured presenter.

Community members who cannot attend in person are encouraged to share their feedback and ideas through RSA’s Digital Thought Exchange at https://bit.ly/ruralforum.
