Wantagh Has Reason to be Proud of our BoE

[Chris_Wendt]

With an actual reduction in the works for Wantagh's School Tax Levy, Wantagh should be very proud of our Board of Education.

Neighboring Seaford and Levittown are both planning tax increases for next year, and Seaford is really packing on the expenses, going backwards and erasing nearly all of the "structural" financial gains they had attained over the past 7 years. Too bad for the Seaford taxpayers, really.

Thanks again, Wantagh Board of Education!

Newsday plugged Wantagh's budget vote results this morning:

"In districts where budgets won approval, the margins of victory were among the highest on record: Bay Shore's $146.8 million budget passed 1,700 to 608; Wantagh's $75.7 million plan, by 1,281 to 271; Jericho's $121.1 million budget, 659 to 149."

Way to go, Wantagh!

Thanks again to our Board of Education!

Sincerely,
