-- The economic squeeze could get worse on Long Island due to a possible school tax hike, which residents didn't think would happen since dozens of districts received a windfall in pandemic aid.
"The 1.9% is a record low," said Lorraine Deller, of the Nassau-Suffolk School Boards Association."Of paramount importance at this point in time is the mental wellbeing of our students."The funding is a windfall. Since 2020, Long Island schools gained more than $850 million in federal pandemic relief money.
"One of the traditions in Long Island is having very strong schools ... If we try to pay for recurring expenses with one-shot revenues, we are going to be in trouble," said Dr. Robert Dillon, superintendent of Nassau BOCES.
