The North Babylon School Board believes in an open budget process, and we encourage all community residents to become involved.

A series of budget meetings planned for this fall will provide an opportunity for community members to offer constructive input early in the process, so that we can gain an understanding of our residents’ concerns.

Please make a point to attend as many of these meetings as possible; and have a voice in the structuring of the 2006-2007 budget!

All budget workshops begin at 7:30 p.m. at North Babylon High School:

February 7

We, as parents, teach our children a lot about good manners, human values, morals and ethics, social etiquette, et cetera. At school also they have subjects such as moral science and value education. But when it comes to teaching about money and finance, we generally feel that they are too young for it.

However, money and finance are a part and parcel of our lives. And just as there is good and bad behaviour, there is also good and bad financial conduct. Therefore, we need to educate our children about the basics of money and money management such as budgeting, saving, investing and not the least spending, from the early years.

Good financial habits need to be inculcated from childhood.

Moreover, today children are big spenders — games, CDs, movies, dresses, cosmetics, etc. Hence, it is important that they learn to appreciate the value of money.
