Monday’s deadline for school board candidates to file their petitions has come and gone. Just two local school districts, East Hampton and Wainscott, will have contested races.
“We are both happy and fortunate to be under the tax cap this year,” J.P. Foster, the school board president, said Wednesday morning. “With rising costs across the board, it is certainly a challenge.”
Tuesday will be an exciting day for the 43 students enrolled in East Hampton High School’s Methods in Research science program. They will welcome parents, friends, and community members to the school’s research symposium, the first to be held since the Covid-19 pandemic paused most activities, where they will display and discuss their projects and results.
