Closing and Rescheduling Updates for Local Districts

Local districts announce plans for more closings and makeup dates.

After four straight days of closings, four local districts are slowly announcing plans for Friday and future reschedulings.

On Thursday, the Miller Place School District announced that it will be closed Friday and that all weekend athletics and the SAT tests schedule for Saturday are also cancelled. Students will now have classes on Monday, which was originally scheduled as an off-day for conferencing. Future makeup dates will be announced.

Rocky Point has also announced that it will be closed Friday because the "condition of the roads throughout the district has not progressed sufficiently to ensure safe transit for our students." The district expects school to resume Monday.

The Mount Sinai and Shoreham-Wading River School Districts will also be closed Friday.

Spoken like a true teacher. Did you know that the average school teacher is only paying 15% of theRead More actual cost of health care premiums for themselves and their families, when Medical healthcare insurance premiums are rising at an alarming 17% per annum? Do you realize that teachers are paid an additional stipend if they work more than 3 consecutive periods in a day? Are you aware that teacher pensions were protected during the stock market crash of 2008, when the average person's 401K was totally at risk? Perhaps if teachers realized how good they have it - look at the BIG picture and outside of their bubble - then they would complain less. Oh and yes, we need our loftily-paid Administrators to kick in some of the salaries, to help pay for stuff. Hard to believe the school districts' mantras that "it's all for the kids".
