The Bethpage Union Free School District is in the process of conducting a survey of parents of registered incoming kindergarten students for September 2023, and current students in kindergarten through fourth grade who attend the Bethpage elementary schools. This survey is to determine if there is any interest in a school breakfast program. If lack of interest is determined, an exemption to participate in this program will be requested by the Bethpage Union Free School District to the New York State Education Department.

Those parents who have concerns regarding the survey or the breakfast program, please contact Mr. Scott M. Harrington, Assistant Superintendent for Business at 516-644-4030.
