Syosset Board completes reorganization; Carol Cheng named president, Lisa Koshia vice president
The Syosset Central School District Board of Education completed its reorganizational business at the July meeting, administering oaths of office, electing Carol Cheng as board president and Lisa Koshia as vice president, and approving a series of routine appointments and consent items.

The elections were decided by voice vote after nominations: Mr. Rotolo moved to appoint Carol Cheng as board president for the 2025–26 school year, seconded by Mr. Greco; the motion carried. Dr. Park moved to appoint Lisa Koshia as vice president, seconded by Ms. Levitan; that motion also carried.

The board administered the oath of office to newly elected and re-elected trustees for the July 1, 2025–June 30, 2028 term and to Superintendent Dr. Rogers. The board also adopted a grouped slate of administrative appointments and routine authorizations — including the district clerk, treasurer and deputy treasurer, data protection officer, internal and claims auditors, purchasing agents, attendance and residency officer, health and safety officers, Title IX coordinators, payroll certification officers, transportation supervisor, and others — by a series of motions during the reorganization portion of the meeting.

The board approved the treasurer's report for May 2025 showing cash on hand of $125,697,030.80; the report was moved by Mr. Rotolo and seconded by Dr. Park and subsequently approved. The board ratified memoranda of agreement with the Syosset Teachers Association and the Syosset Therapists Association and approved multiple vendor and cooperative purchasing authorizations, contract awards, and standard consent items that are customary at the start of the fiscal year.

Board members also approved appointment of the student ex officio board member, Nikhil Shah; Shah was not present at the meeting and the board reserved remarks to introduce him at the August meeting. The board set the 2025–26 meeting schedule, designated official newspapers and banks, established petty cash and mileage rates, and authorized staff to attend conferences.

Several routine contract authorizations and cooperative purchasing participations were approved, including authorizations to enter into agreements with Apple Inc. license amendments, Infinite Campus, and multiple cooperative purchasing providers and piggyback arrangements. The board voted to authorize a contract award for security enhancements as listed on the agenda.
