The Miller Place School District (MPSD) is proud to announce that it will be saving nearly $2.3 million dollars over the next 11 years by refinancing its 2010 space bond. The savings were made possible by Miller Place’s planning, budgeting practices and consistently strong Moody’s Bond Rating of Aa2.
“The District’s refinancing of the outstanding bond debt is reflective of our strong financial stewardship and continued trajectory of success,” said Dr. Marianne Cartisano, superintendent of Miller Place School District. “We have worked diligently to improve our short and long-term financial outlook while effectively maintaining and advancing our high-quality educational programs and services.”
MPSD
received a total of eleven bids and Mesirow Financial, Inc. was the winning
bidder. This resulted in the District’s original 3.92% interest rate on the
bonds being lowered to a true interest rate of 1.63%. The District’s Moody Bond Rating of Aa2 will
allow the District to experience $2,289,950 in total budgetary savings over the
next 11 years. Moving forward, the District will continue to monitor its
outstanding debt to take advantage of any budgetary savings that can be
achieved through refinancing.
