Voters Reject Eastchester 2026 School Budget, Elect School Board Members

EASTCHESTER, NY — The ballots are in and voters have decided on the 2026 budget and school board.

Here are the unofficial results.

Voters rejected the Eastchester Union Free School District proposed budget of $116,858,433 for the 2026-2027 school year. Because this plan exceeded the state's tax levy cap with a proposed 6.31 percent levy increase, it would have required a supermajority of 60 percent of voters to pass.

The budget was defeated 1385 to 1196.

Robert Krukowski, Sean Fellin and Jill Cosetino were elected to the board of education.
