DON'T FORGET TO VOTE ON TUESDAY, MAY 20TH!

The Annual Budget Vote and Board of Education Election will be held on Tuesday, May 20, 2025, in the Islip High School gymnasium. The polls will be open from 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. Voters are being asked to elect two members to the Board of Education, as well as consider two propositions - one on the proposed budget for the 2025-2026 school year and the other on the expenditure of money from the Capital Reserve Fund.

The Board of Education will also meet in the Islip High School that evening, beginning at 7:00 p.m. It is anticipated that after opening the meeting they will move immediately into an executive session until approximately 8:30 p.m., at which time they will recess.

Following the closing of the polls and canvassing of the votes, the Board will hold a brief public meeting in the High School cafeteria, starting at approximately 9:30 p.m. The agenda for the meeting will be available to the public at least 48 hours before the meeting through BoardDocs on the District website.

Dear Islip Parents and Guardians:

Each year when the District team creates the school calendar, we are mindful of the fact that inclement weather could necessitate the closing of schools for the safety of our students and staff. As such, we build snow "make up" days into the calendar to prevent an extension of the school year to meet State attendance regulations.

While winter this year was certainly frigid, we were fortunate to have escaped with relatively little snow, necessitating only one delayed opening. This means we are able to "give back" the two built in make up days included in our calendar.

Therefore, there will be no school on Friday, May 23rd and Tuesday, May 27th. Please make any necessary childcare arrangements for these two days. We hope  you and your family are able to enjoy the extra-long weekend.
