Dear Locust Valley Central School District Community,
As members of the Board of Education, we understand the concerns many families and residents have regarding rising costs, inflation and the impact of taxes on household budgets. These concerns are real, and they were central to every discussion and decision made throughout this year’s budget development process.
The Board of Education unanimously approved the proposed 2026-27 school budget, which reflects a careful balance between fiscal responsibility and our continued commitment to educational excellence. With a proposed tax levy increase of 2.1%, well below the district’s allowable tax cap of 2.84%, this budget was crafted to protect taxpayers while preserving the outstanding opportunities and experiences our students deserve.
At a time when many neighboring districts are proposing significantly higher increases, Locust Valley remains among the lowest. This budget maintains all current academic, athletic and extracurricular programs while continuing to invest in student success and school safety. It preserves small class sizes, expands course offerings in areas such as engineering and accounting, strengthens literacy and science programming, and supports award-winning arts, music and film programs. It also includes critical security upgrades to school buildings and continued investment in leadership and career readiness opportunities for students.
Equally important, the district continues to utilize a thoughtful strategy to support the maintenance of our buildings without additional tax increases or unnecessary debt. By utilizing transfers to capital, we can responsibly manage long-term financial obligations, reduce future borrowing needs and minimize the burden placed on taxpayers over time. It is a fiscally prudent strategy designed to ensure that today’s decisions do not create tomorrow’s financial problems.
The Locust Valley and Bayville communities have always been strongest when we work together as one. Our schools reflect our collective values, and supporting our students is an investment in our shared future. In recent years, public discourse has increasingly shifted to social media forums and online commentary. While everyone is entitled to their opinions, we encourage residents to rely on factual information from district communications, budget presentations and official public meetings when making decisions about the future of our schools.
As a Board of Education, we stand firmly behind this budget because we believe it reflects the priorities of our community: strong schools, responsible financial planning, student opportunity, safety and long-term stability. We remain committed to supporting a thriving, healthy and unified school community where every student can succeed and every resident can feel confident in the direction of the district.
We encourage all residents to vote on Tuesday, May 19. Your participation matters, and your vote will help determine the future of the Locust Valley Central School District.
Sincerely,
The Locust Valley Central School District Board of Education

The 2026-2027 Locust Valley Central School District adopted budget, unanimously approved by the Board of Education, carries a budget percentage and tax levy increase far below those of our neighbors. The levy increase of 2.10% falls below the 2.84% maximum allowed increase and is the second lowest among 12 neighboring districts. This figure also represents a continuation of high-quality programs and experiences for our students, while keeping in mind the financial impact on our taxpayers.

On May 6, Locust Valley elementary schoolers had the chance to meet award-winning author and illustrator Jarrett Lerner, who many students know from his “The Hunger Heroes” and “Nat the Cat” series. Locust Valley Intermediate School students gave Lerner a warm welcome, covering the walls in their renditions of the Massachusetts-based writer’s book covers.
During assemblies with Ann MacArthur Primary and Locust Valley Intermediate students, Lerner took questions about how he was inspired to become an author and illustrator, taught the students how he draws his characters and signed copies of his books for students and the schools to keep.

The Locust Valley High School Class of 2026 kicked off graduation season at Up and Away Day on May 1. Seniors wore their college colors and came down to the gym, which was lined with graduation posters provided by the high school parents’ council, to celebrate their next chapters.
Fifteen Locust Valley High School students traveled to the Nassau County Emergency Medical Services Academy in Old Bethpage on April 28 to participate in training scenarios with professionals as part of the district’s EMT program.
The students have worked in labs and classes for six hours a week after school since November, learning lifesaving techniques and preparing for the examination for EMT certification in May. Professionals walked the students through a mock car accident, advising them on how to assess the scene and handle the tools that can help them extract victims from the vehicle. The trip helped these devoted students gain valuable hands-on team building experiences.

The Locust Valley Central School District honored one of its late-greats on May 2, as the high school softball field was dedicated to beloved teacher, coach, mentor and champion of girls’ athletics, Cindy Tobin.
The ceremony was attended by many, some traveling from far and wide to pay tribute to Tobin’s legacy and the beautiful new sign that welcomes you to the softball diamond. Among the attendees were the members of the current varsity softball team, all of whom are fully aware of the legendary coach who paved the way for the thriving program.
“Today, we dedicate this field in her name and we are doing more than placing a sign or honoring a career. We are cementing her legacy into the very fabric of our program, our school and our community,” athletic director Danielle Turner Cosci said. “Every practice, every game and every young athlete who steps onto this field will be a part of that legacy.”
The dedication came together through a project involving the district, the athletic department and Falcon Pride Athletic Booster club. A graduate of the high school’s Class of 1970, Tobin gave decades of her life to coaching, winning three conference championships in the 1984, 1985 and 1988 seasons and a Conference Coach of the Year award in 1988. But Tobin is just as revered for her community work, serving the summer recreation program for 50 years. Tobin is remembered as a caring, kind and loving leader in her community.
Falcon Pride Athletic Booster Club president John Johnson said that the organization reached out to the alumni base with the idea, leading to an outpouring of love and support for the idea.
“Unanimously, everyone mentioned that Cindy Tobin is Locust Valley girls softball, and naming the field would be a perfect tribute to her,” Johnson said.
“On the softball diamond, she did more than teach the mechanics of the game. She empowered young women to find their inner confidence, fostered a spirit of resilience and helped them realize their absolute highest potential,” Locust Valley Superintendent of Schools, Dr. Kristen Turnow, said.
“As a big sister, she taught me many of the attributes that she taught her players. To play fair, try your best, work hard, help others and be a team player,” Cindy’s sister, Wendy Tobin said. “I am forever grateful to have a sister like her and I miss her every day.”
“The way I coach, the way I teach, the way I show up for others, that’s her. That’s her influence living through me every day” Tobin’s former player and current high school coach and physical education teacher Nadine Pacifico said. “I can still hear her voice echoing behind me, pushing me, challenging me and believing in me.”
Cindy Tobin Field will be a shining light in the district. Tobin’s devotion lives on in the generations of coaches and players she helped discover their full potential.

The nation’s 250th anniversary is just around the corner, and the District staff and students are excited to mark the occasion with community events and classroom lessons and projects throughout June.

Locust Valley High School students Michael Giovanniello, Aria Hassa, Christopher McKenzie, Henry Pisciotta and Liam Reilly will perform as part of the Hofstra University Symphonic Band in the Fourth Annual Honor Band Day Festival on May 9. The students will work with conductor David Soto for a day of clinics, combined rehearsals and workshops, culminating in a public performance with other local high school students.
If you drove by Ann MacArthur Primary School this week, you may have noticed a little extra room in the parking lot. In a quick facilities project, we have added 20 new parking spaces to assist staff and community members as we head towards graduation season. We hope this will make parking easier for everyone at both AMP and Locust Valley Intermediate.
Locust Valley High School’s Class of 2026 modeled a wide variety of outfits in the annual fashion show on April 24.
