Port Washington School District to Host Bond Fair

Submitted by Port Washington Schools

On Tuesday March 10, 2015, community residents will have an opportunity to vote on a capital project bond referendum.

To ensure all voters know the facts about the proposed bond, the Board of Education will host a bond fair on Tuesday Feb. 24, 2015 from 6:30-8 p.m. at Paul D. Schreiber High School. During the meeting, the details of the proposed scope of work will be presented along with the financial facts. Residents will also have an opportunity to have their questions answered.

The school district is at a crossroads and one of only a few on Long Island showing an upward trend in enrollment. The district’s facilities are aging and were never designed to support the needs of today’s students, the more rigorous and competitive curriculum, future enrollment projections and the Board of Education and administration’s educational vision for the future.

All community residents are invited to attend the bond fair to learn more about the proposed bond before voting on Tuesday, March 10, 2015 at Weber Middle School from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. For more information about the bond, including a video, visit the district’s website at www.portnet.k12.ny.us.
