📰 News we're reading

• Day School Yes, Dorms No: Islip Blocks Boarding at Bay Shore's Former Seminary (southshorepress.com) — A recent Islip Zoning Board decision means the proposed Muslim school on South Saxon Avenue in Bay Shore can operate only as a day school, not a boarding school, under current zoning rules. Neighbors and supporters packed a July hearing, and the association is now weighing options ranging from seeking variances to possible court challenges, so the project's future remains uncertain for nearby residents.
   

• FSL Helps Thousands Start School Ready (southshorepress.com) — Families in Bay Shore are among those receiving thousands of free backpacks and school supplies from Family Service League's annual Back-to-School Drive, easing the cost of returning to class. The nonprofit is now gearing up for its Project TOY holiday program, inviting donations so local children can pick out new gifts in a dignified, festive setting.
