The district's Withdrawal Study Committee reviewed proposals and financial impact estimates for municipal withdrawal and decided not to recommend withdrawal for two towns under study.

The committee considered estimates of impact to the eight remaining towns under two scenarios: one in which a withdrawing town tuitions students to ConVal and one in which it does not. The committee focused on a tuition scenario where Francistown would educate K–5 and tuition grades 6–12 to ConVal, using the most recent Department of Education cost-per-student numbers. Under that tuition scenario, the committee summary showed an average districtwide increase of 3.91%, roughly $1.7 million, for the remaining towns.

After presentations and follow-up discussion, the committee voted unanimously to not recommend Temple's withdrawal; the committee-approved report on Temple was included in the board packet and will be submitted to the State Board of Education. At a subsequent meeting the committee considered Francistown and a motion to recommend Francistown's withdrawal failed on a roll-call tally recorded in the minutes as "6 to 8 to 0;" the committee therefore did not recommend Francistown's withdrawal.

The committee chair said a draft of the final report would be circulated to members and the committee planned to approve and submit the final report by the State Board's November 1 deadline. Committee minutes and the Temple report were placed in the board drive for public review; the chair asked the board to acknowledge receipt so the district could forward the report to the State Board of Education.
