Talk:List of school districts in New York

message: Creating one list would most likely make sense.  I don't see a reason for having both Lists of school districts in New York and List of school districts in New York.
My concern is that the List of school districts in New York show a "downstate" POV (before anyone flames, I was born in the Tremont section of the Bronx and grew up on LI);  For example, Malone is about as far from Albany as Albany is from NYC, and should be in some group other than Capital Region.  Any suggestions for improving the regional names?  What about the NYS State Ed's Joint Management Team areas?
That's my $.02

replies: text: Agree that two lists are a pain to maintain and can breed confusion, but there are pros to having the list organized both alphabetically and by region. I AM from the non-Downstate part of NY so I've started a WNY section. This may either help matters or further disambugate them. Time to ponder . . . . 2¢ Jim Dunning 12:02, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: One list would be better if it could satisfy both of the current structures: one list by region (List of ...) and another list alphabetically by school name (Lists of ...). I'm not sure we can do that using the rules and formats of Wikipedia. To further complicate things, there is a "category:School districts in New York" that shows the school districts alphabetically, but it only contains the district if the district has a wiki page and that page has been properly categorized to New York State, so the category list misses a lot of the districts. Throwing my 2¢ in, I suggest we leave things as they are, at least for now. I have added a link to the other list on each list's wiki so that readers can at least find both lists.

replies: text: There is really no reason for two separate lists. Both contain the same districts. The difference is in the way the lists are organized: List of school districts in New York is organized by the State Education Department's JMT regions and BOCES areas; Lists of school districts in New York arranges the districts alphabetically. The former list also contains more information in that it contains the BOCES regions and all of the districts are linked to either their Wikipedia article or website; the latter article contains some wikilinks but is mostly plain text. I suggest that all of the info on the alphabetical Lists of school districts in New York be removed and the article redirected to the List of school districts in New York article. Since I am the one who restructured and improved that article, I don't think it would be appropriate for me to do the redirect. Therefore, I leave it to the Wikipedia community.

message: Is Albany city school district part of, or not part of, the Capital region BOCES? According to the cited website (http://capitalregionboces.org/Components/Index.cfm) it looks like it is.

replies: text: It is not a component district. The cited page states ″Capital Region BOCES provides shared educational services to 23 component school districts, plus the City School District of Albany.″ --Ira Goldstein (talk) 01:45, 28 July 2015 (UTC)
