Superintendents Message
Message from the Superintendent - May 21 2025

Thank you for supporting the 2025–2026 Central Islip School District Budget. This budget represents an investment in our children’s education by providing a safe and enriching environment, while also maintaining the structural integrity of our school buildings, grounds, and facilities. It remains within the New York State 2% Tax Levy Cap and reflects a fiscally responsible plan that aligns with our community’s capacity to support a wide range of programs—including academics, athletics, music, instructional technology, advanced placement, and intervention services—designed to help all students achieve their personal best.

To better serve our community and based on feedback from a recent survey, we are changing the culture of school-to-home communication. We will shift toward using the Parent Square App for:

  • Attendance Alerts & Notifications and Parent Excuse Notes
  • District Alerts & Announcements (Snow Days, School Closures, District Events, Important Information)
  • Building/School Alerts & Announcements (Snow Days, School Closures, District Events, Important Information)
  • Classroom & Teacher Alerts & Announcements
  • Athletics, Sports, Teams, Clubs, Music Ensemble Alerts & Announcements
  • Field Trip Permission Slips

Alerts and messages are automatically translated to your language of choice. To receive your messages in a language other than English please update your language preferences in your app.  

To ensure you receive school announcements in ParentSquare please ensure your child's school as your correct email address in our PowerSchool Student Information System.  If your contact info isn't recognized, contact your child's building principal to update your information in PowerSchool. 

Students must download the StudentSquare App and login using their school email address and school password.  Students in grades 7-12 also have the option of adding their personal cell phone number through the main office or their guidance counselor. 

You will no longer receive any robocalls or other communication for important alerts or attendance information. Please be sure to complete the checklist below as soon as possible.
