The school board voted 4–0 on May 3 to accept a New Hampshire Department of Education Bureau of Career Development transportation-aid award to reimburse Career and Technical Education student transportation costs.
Amity, presenting the grant, told the board: "We were notified on February 12 that we were awarded up to $326,000 for transportation costs that we incurred this fiscal year, last fiscal year, and the fiscal year before that."

Board action: A motion to open the public hearing and accept the award passed on roll-call and subsequent vote; the public hearing was closed with a unanimous vote.
Ending: With the grant accepted, district staff said they will proceed to claim reimbursement according to the award terms.
