What Needs Fixing in Northport-East Northport Schools?

Recent referendum sets priority items.

With thousands of children transiting the halls of Northport-East Northport Schools five days a week, equipment can quickly succumb to wear and tear. The auditorium, cafeteria, stairs, classrooms, gyms, outdoor athletic facilities, bathrooms, and grounds all take a good beating and often require refurbishment or replacement.

The District re-built the stairs at the Brosnan Building and revamped lockers and patched potholes at Northport Middle School for the new school year. In addition, residents recently approved a referendum to fund refurbishment of auditoriums at Northport and East Northport middle schools, bathroom renovations at Northport Middle and HVAC upgrades at Dickinson Avenue School.

Do you agree with the District's priority items? What else do you think needs to be fixed in Northport-East Northport Schools? Which are highest priority in your opinion?
