After auditors said late last year that the Sag Harbor School District had missed out on hundreds of thousands of dollars in New York State funding for summer special education programs, district administrators came to a different conclusion: They had overestimated the amount of money they were due to collect.
The East Hampton School District took its first step this week toward installing solar panels and other energy-efficiency upgrades, having recently received the go-ahead from the State Education Department.
Children’s Fair
Nearly two dozen children’s book authors will be on hand Sunday at the East Hampton Library’s free Children’s Fair at Amagansett Farm. Among them will be Billy Baldwin with “Story Glass,” Adam Osterweil with “The Baseball Card Kid,” and Oksana and Julia Zbarsky with “Do You Know Where the Freckle Goes?” The fair will also include games, rides, crafts, bounce houses, and live performances, all taking place from 2 to 5:30 p.m. Amagansett Farm is at 555 Montauk Highway.
In any inventory of the most influential documentary filmmakers, certain names inevitably appear: Dziga Vertov, Robert Flaherty, Marcel Ophuls, Frederick Wiseman, Michael Apted, Errol Morris, Albert and David Maysles, and the Maysles’ contemporary and onetime associate, D.A. Pennebaker.
