In the event of inclement weather or an emergency closing, announcements regarding Eastern Suffolk BOCES closings or delays will be available at the following sources:

  • ESBOCES website (www.esboces.org)
  • ESBOCES Facebook and Instagram accounts 
  • Channel 12 News Long Island
  • ESBOCES telephone line, which can be accessed by calling (631) 244-4002
  • For Academy staff, students, and families, announcements can also be found at www.academyli.org or Academy Facebook and Instagram. 

For Professional Development Workshops and Conferences at an ESBOCES location: 

  • If ESBOCES is open, all events will proceed as scheduled. 
  • If ESBOCES is closed, all events will be cancelled. 
  • If ESBOCES has a delayed opening, all events will be delayed for the same amount of time. 
    • For example, if there is a 2-hour delayed opening, an event scheduled to start at 8:30 a.m. will begin at 10:30 a.m.
    • There will likely be a shortened and work-through lunch/break period

Note: If the school district where you work is closed or delayed and ESBOCES is not, please follow the procedure for your school district.
