School Board members from Newmarket and ORCSD met yesterday and the initial reports from that meeting don't sound promising for a tuition agreement between the two districts.
So what's next?
A group of people approached the School Board in November to ask that the school designs be reevaluated to ensure that we are keeping it to the absolute minimum in both scale and cost. My understanding is that a committee has been formed and will be working on this over the next couple of weeks. The hope is to bring the cost down to something a majority in Newmarket can swallow.
And we are still looking at a budget that represents a significant tax increase if approved and warrant articles still need to be finalized.
Here's a list of meetings we should all be paying attention to:
School Board--Thursday 12/5 at 7pm
Budget Committee--Wednesday 12/11 at 6:30pm
School Board--Thursday 12/19 at 7pm
We go to the polls in 96 days.
