The requests for our school district would be addressed to: Records Access Officer, Plainview Old-Bethpage Central School District, 106 Washington Avenue, Plainview, New York 11803 and you can drop them off in person with Harriet Fischer, District Clerk.

The Committee on Open Government, NYS Dept of State gives advice on FOIL and Open Meetings Law (law that governs the BOE meetings)

They can be reached by phone at 518-474-2518.
