The Manhasset School District and the Board of Education (BOE) held a meeting on March 29 that focused predominately on budget cuts in the foreign language and drama departments. Each scheduled board of education meeting includes a discussion of specific areas and specific programs being cut and the turnout at many meetings has been large and passionate. A general occurrence at the meetings has been individuals addressing the board to plead for programs targeted for cuts while not many hard questions about the overall budget are asked.
