Local finance chair warns of declining GSA enrollment and financial instability
Summary
Al Judd, Surry Finance Committee chair and Surry’s representative to the GSA Budget Committee, reported declining enrollment at GSA and urged a meeting with GSA leadership to discuss fundraising and the unsustainability of relying on supplemental tuition votes.
Al Judd, chair of the Surry Finance Committee and the town’s representative to the GSA Budget Committee, told the Select Board that GSA is facing declining enrollment and financial instability. He said the Finance Committee believes the group cannot continue to rely on voters to approve supplemental tuition requests and recommended that he set up a meeting with Deb at GSA to discuss fundraising strategies and long-term financial stability.
Al asked the Select Board to support arranging that meeting and to consider the committee’s view that more substantive fundraising is needed to reduce reliance on voter-approved supplements. The Select Board did not record any formal decisions about GSA funding at this meeting.
