The Southold Board of Education is expected to discuss its transportation contract and a shared-service agreement with Greenport at tonight’s regular school board meeting.

There’s a resolution on the agenda to approve a contract extension with Sunrise Busses for the 2013-14 school year. The proposal includes a 2 percent increase or the consumer price index, whichever is lower.

The board is also likely to vote on a joint agreement with Greenport schools to share a new technology director for at least the next three years.

The Greenport school board approved the agreement during its May 14 meeting to appoint Ryan Case to the post, which takes effect July 1.

The public portion of tonight’s Southold school board meeting starts at 7:30 p.m.
