ALBANY-SCHOHARIE-SCHENECTADY-SARATOGA BOCES

Located along Watervliet-Shaker Road in Albany, New York, the Albany-Schoharie-Schenectady-Saratoga BOCES—commonly known as Capital Region BOCES—serves as a vital public educational service agency within a large suburban setting of the greater Albany-Schenectady-Troy metropolitan area. Actively operating to bridge resources across regional communities, the district provides specialized infrastructure, technical pathways, and collaborative support covering kindergarten through 12th grade, as well as ungraded instructional programming. Rather than functioning as a standard neighborhood school system, this regional agency partners closely with area school districts to offer tailored academic, vocational, and support services across its operational center.

To carry out its regional mission, the agency maintains a substantial workforce of nearly 1,050 full-time equivalent staff members dedicated to student success and administrative excellence. This personnel network features approximately 232 full-time equivalent teachers, 130 instructional aides, and more than 685 support staff members spanning technical, therapeutic, and operational roles. While primary student enrollment counts are registered through component home districts across the region, Capital Region BOCES leverages its extensive staffing body to deliver highly individualized instruction, career-focused training, and essential educational services throughout the communities it serves.
