More than 85 Central Islip school employees -- the majority of them teachers -- would be laid off next year under the district's proposed budget, while the average teacher salary will rise by 9 percent, district officials said.
The $176-million budget adopted earlier this week by the board of education calls for a 6.57 percent tax increase that would raise the average homeowner's bill by $500.
