Superintendent Kelly Zimmerman with 3 other attendees at the RSA Winter Conference

Delaware Academy District Superintendent Kelly Zimmerman attended the Rural Schools Association of New York State Winter Conference last week in Saratoga Springs, where she moderated a panel discussion on mental health issues facing schools. RSA also released its 2024 policy brief to state leaders that was partially informed by a Rural Issues Forum  held at Delaware Academy last spring. Mrs. Zimmerman, an RSA board member, had the privilege of presenting the RSA Appreciation Award to Dr. Chris Kjolhede, Co-Director of Bassett Healthcare System’s School-Based Health Centers. Bassett's first school-based health center opened 31 years ago at Delaware Academy, and the school is proud of that continuing partnership and the benefits that it brings to our students and families.
