Here's 3 things to know after North Shore’ School Districts propositions pass

The North Shore community voted to pass two school district propositions on Feb. 10. Both allow the district to begin indoor and outdoor projects throughout the district. All projects are to be completed within three to five years, and yearly school budgets will not be affected. Proposition one was for $11.76 million in bond projects for all five schools. The second was for $2.48 million from the district’s capital reserve funds to replace the high school track and install stadium lights at the high school football field. Here are three things to know following the vote.

Both proposition pass with more than two-thirds majority by voters.

Proposition one passed with 930 votes in favor to 392 against, and proposition two with 928 votes for and 394 against. Roughly 70 percent of 1,322 total voters voted in favor of each proposal.

Bond projects will include air conditioning, infrastructure and athletic improvements.

Improvements to large space air conditioning will be made in the gymnasiums at all three elementary schools and the middle school as well as Glen Head Elementary’s gathering room, Glenwood Landing’s cafeteria and Sea Cliff’s auditorium.

Work on infrastructure is planned for every school except Sea Cliff. The ceiling at the high school auditorium will be replaced, and new fencing will be installed at the middle school. Glen Head will receive upgrades to its elevator and gathering room. Music classrooms at Glenwood Landing are slated to be reconstructed and reconfigured.

Various athletic and recreational facility improvements are planned for both the middle and high schools.

The full timeline for completion of projects has not been determined yet.

While all projects must be completed within three to five years, the exact timeline is not yet laid out. In an interview prior to the vote, Superintendent Chris Zublionis said it would be discussed following the passage of the propositions.

Board of Education Trustee Lisa Colacioppo suggested meeting to discuss the timeline at the board’s public meeting on Feb 12.
