School Consolidation

The Regional High School Action Committee, a group promoting school consolidation, will hold a forum Thursday, May 21, at the Tuckahoe School.

Some officials from the surrounding education community are expected to attend the meeting, which will be held from 2 to 4 p.m. in the school library.

Chris Dyer, Tuckahoe’s superintendent, said by phone yesterday that the forum is intended to be exploratory in nature, with “no egos” or political agendas involved.

“Something has to be done,” Mr. Dyer said, to ensure that funding for public high schools is sustainable here on the East End, and a regional high school might be one solution.

Tuckahoe School is at 468 Magee Street in Southampton. The meeting will be open to the public.
