“These awards represent our commitment to our core values of excellence, leadership and service, and innovation. We are always looking to improve how we communicate and support our school districts and BOCES,” said Questar III District Superintendent Dr. Gladys I. Cruz.
Led by its Communications Service, Questar III helps school districts in Rensselaer, Columbia, and Greene counties plan and implement a customized communications program.
