The Northport-East Northport Board of Education meeting Monday was cancelled due to continuing weather conditions and rescheduled for Tuesday.
Superintendent Maryou McDermott is expected to present a preliminary 2013-2014 budget at the meeting. The budget will reflect the board's direction given on Jan. 28 for the Superintendent to create a $158.7 million 2013-2014 budget, representing a 3.1 percent budget to budget increase from the prior year. It would require a little less than $2.8 million in cuts.

- Recommendation to authorize the Board President to execute an Agreement between the Board of Education of the Northport-East Northport Union Free School District and the United Teachers of Northport regarding creation of a sick leave bank for a specific employee (to be forwarded Friday)
- Recommendation to approve transfer of general fund appropriations in the 2012-2013 budget
- Recommendation to approve 2012-2013 estimated non-resident tuition charges and the 2011-2012 actual non-resident tuition charges, identifying the amounts that will be charged to other school districts for any of their students who are enrolled in our district
