Good Morning!

It will be mostly clear overnight, with a low around 44. Friday will be mostly sunny, with a high near 65. There’s a 40 percent chance of showers before 1 p.m. Saturday, but otherwise it will be mostly cloudy, with a high near 72.

• One teacher’s salary might not make much of a difference in your average school district’s budget, but for the tiny schools that dot the East End’s smallest communities, little changes could pose existential threats. The 15-student New Suffolk School is facing just such a condition this fall. Read The Beacon’s exclusive coverage online here.
