Please join us for our School-Community Connection Series, providing information and conversation about the Port Jefferson School District community. Our next open discussion – Traditions and Progress: Can They Coexist? – will be held on Thursday, Jan. 24 at 6:30 p.m. in the Earl L. Vandermeulen High School library. We welcome your participation.

These open discussions are an opportunity to engage with some of the important components that are integral to the educational success of our students and the future of our district.

A work session meeting of the Port Jefferson School District board of Education will be held on January 22, 2019, 7:00 p.m., in the Large Group Room at Edna Louise Spear Elementary School, for a first draft presentation of the 2019-2020 school year budget; and, any other business as may be needed.  The meeting will be live-streamed via the school district website.

A special meeting of the Port Jefferson School District Board of Education will be held on Tuesday, January 29, 2019, 6:30 p.m., at the District Office, for the purpose of entering executive session to discuss a personnel matter.

The Port Jefferson School District has been made aware of a settlement in the tax assessment case between the Town of Brookhaven and the Long Island Power Authority (LIPA). 

We have been in discussions with Town of Brookhaven officials to learn more about the specific details of the settlement and how it impacts the District. The timing of the Town’s settlement is helpful because the District is at the front end of our budget development process for the 2019-20 school year. When we have a more complete picture of the agreement that was reached, we will share that information with our school-community.

Now that a settlement has been reached, we can begin moving forward with informed decisions based on real facts and less speculation. A change was expected and looming over the community and school district for quite a few years. The District will work tirelessly to make the adjustments necessary to continue our responsibility of educating the children of our community. We have confidence that we’ll be able to meet this challenge successfully as long as we work together.
