We write to share with you that the Commissioner of the New York State Department of Education has issued an order, effective October 14, 2025, which prevents the District from enforcing Board Resolutions passed in September 2025. Those resolutions required students to use intimate facilities, including bathrooms and locker rooms, that corresponded to their biological sex. Under the Commissioner’s Order, such separation is now prohibited.
We remain committed to ensuring the safety and dignity of all students. Accordingly, we will continue to offer a gender-neutral locker room and bathroom option to any student who will be more comfortable using such a space.
PPS support is available for anyone who is affected by this decision.
Sincerely,
Massapequa Board of Education

Sincerely,
MSD Athletic Department

We’re just over a month into the 2025-26 school year, and what an amazing start it’s been! In September, we welcomed nearly 6,500 students across our nine schools, and the energy has been inspiring. This year’s theme, “Paradigm of Potential: The Power of Connection and Community,” is already coming to life. Our students’ curiosity and determination show limitless potential, the bonds between students and educators grow stronger each day, and the support of our Massapequa community makes it all possible. I invite you to read my full letter and view the September Massapequa Minute and Moment by clicking the links below.
