Unfunded New York State and Federal Mandates
The Shoreham-Wading River School District is required by law (mandated) by the regulations set forth by the Commissioner of Education, as well as by the New York State and Federal governments, to provide certain programs and services. Many of these mandates are either unfunded or underfunded, leaving the district to shoulder the burden of the cost. We are required to implement each mandated item regardless of cost, and like all other districts throughout the state, are audited on our compliance. As the list of mandates continues to grow, the district’s operational expenses must increase to cover the funding. For a list of unfunded New York State and Federal mandates, please click here.
