Education may be priceless, but on Long Island it isn’t cheap.The cost to educate students on Long Island has hit a record high, with districts projected to spend an average $41,913 per student this year, up from about $39,000 last year, a Newsday analysis shows.The rising costs of health insurance, salaries, fuel and other essentials contribute to the increase, along with the need to meet state and federal mandates on special education and other services, Long Island school district officials said.Maura McDermott and Michael R. Ebert report in NEWSDAY that Long Island schools’ costs are rising faster than the metropolitan area's inflation rate, which was 4.3% in August, according to federal figures.“It costs more money to do business on Long Island,” said Bob Vecchio, executive director of the Nassau-Suffolk School Boards Association. Along with other expenses, he said, “salaries are higher here because of regional cost differences, without a doubt.”Vecchio said, “Are costs too high? I would say there's a general sentiment that costs are too high, but a lot of those costs are out of the control of the local school boards and are really dictated by the state or the federal government.”Some critics argued New York taxpayers are spending too much on schools that lag behind other states in academic performance.Statewide, students met or exceeded proficiency standards in English and math at rates of 53.2% and 55.1%, respectively. Long Island students performed better, at rates of 55.5% and 60.1%, the most recent available figures show.Long Island’s projected per-student cost was higher than New York’s average of $37,019 this year, Newsday’s analysis shows. It also is more than double the 2024 national average of $17,619 per student, according to federal data.Tuition paid to charter schools, institutions for students with special needs and out-of-district middle and high schools were also factored into the cost.***The Southold Town Planning Board is expected to reopen the public hearing on a proposed agricultural storage barn on a controversial proposed farm on Ackerly Pond Road in Southold this evening at 5 p.m. at Southold Town Hall. The applicant had originally proposed a chicken farm there, but recently updated his plan to instead have a fruit and vegetable farm, after complaints from neighbors.Old Westbury resident Grant Callahan, representing 2340 Ackerly Pond LLC, first approached the Southold Town Planning Board about using the currently vacant 16-acre property as a 6,000-hen chicken farm this past winter.Beth Young reports in EAST END BEACON that residents of the subdivision have adamantly opposed the project from the start, starting a petition and repeatedly appearing at Planning Board and Southold Town Board meetings asking the town to intervene to keep the chicken farm from beginning operation.Among their concerns were the intensity of the operation and potential associated dust, disease or vermin. The Southold Town Board has declined to weigh in on the matter, stating that it cannot intervene in applications that are before its land use boards.Southold Town holds a development rights easement on the property which requires it to only be used for agricultural purposes.While Mr. Callahan does not need approval from the Planning Board to raise chickens, he does need approval for a 2,100-square-foot barn he proposed to build not far from the property’s border with a neighboring subdivision on Jasmine Lane.So, the Southold Town Board will reopen the public hearing on this matter at its meeting this evening at 5 p.m.***The Animal Rescue Fund of the Hamptons will host its 33rd annual Stroll to the Sea Dog Walk this coming Saturday, October 10, bringing dogs and their owners together for a morning of activities, contests and fundraising in East Hampton.The event will begin Saturday at 9 a.m. at Mulford Farm, 10 James Lane in East Hampton with designer and entertainer Isaac Mizrahi joining the prewalk festivities and awards presentation.
