The New York State Center for Rural Schools aims to be a leader in solving systemic problems and improving opportunities, practice, policy for rural schools and the communities they serve. The Center is working with many partners to assist rural communities to (re)create socially and economically vibrant communities across the state of NY.
The New York State Center for Rural Schools builds:
connections among key constituents
capacity for data access, research, and programmatic support to schools, and
knowledge through high quality and interdisciplinary research on timely problems facing rural New York State schools and the communities they serve.

The Center will operate in concert with numerous other organizations such as Sharing Success and the Rural Schools Association of NYS, as well as Cornell’s Program in Applied Demographics, Community and Rural Development, and Office of Land Grant Affairs. Together, the Center and its partners provide a comprehensive set of opportunities and information, such as the Integrated Data System, to assist and inform local and state decision-making.
We invite you to contact us if you have interest in working with the Center, suggestions for this website, or stories or photos to share from your rural school.
