# North Babylon Board of Education Meeting 10/15/26

The North Babylon Union Free School District Board of Education’s regular business meeting on October 15, 2026, included a presentation on two proposed bond propositions for a community vote scheduled for January 19, 2027. Proposition 1 is estimated at $61.7 million gross, with offsetting revenues bringing its net amount to $52.9 million; Proposition 2 is $23 million, and the presentation cited a combined total of approximately $76.3 million. Proposed work includes roof repairs or replacements across district schools, a new transportation facility, electrical-panel upgrades, improvements to baseball and softball fields, and changes to traffic flow and facilities at MGV. The district said estimates include removing, storing, and reinstalling rooftop solar panels during roof construction. Officials cited state building aid as covering a substantial share of eligible construction costs and estimated that passage of both propositions would add about $151 per year, or $12.58 per month, for the average homeowner. No bond award or spending authorization was voted on at this meeting; the propositions remain subject to voter approval.

The superintendent also reported on student activities and academic achievements, including increased Advanced Placement participation, and the board recognized staff members receiving tenure. The board discussed exploring a real-property-tax exemption for disabled veterans and said it would seek information on the number of eligible residents before deciding; officials noted a March 1 deadline. Public comments raised concerns about individual student services and the cost and timing of roof work related to solar panels. No vendor selection, contract award, or procurement vote was identified.
