Selectboard hears update: Taconic & Green consolidation modeling could close Dorset School under two of three options
Summary
Board member Jim Salsgiver reported that Taconic & Green School District is researching three consolidation options; two of the options under study would close Dorset School if pursued. The process will take several years and would require voter approval if advanced.
Selectboard member Jim Salsgiver briefed the board on the Taconic & Green School District’s recent meeting about consolidation and potential school closures.
Salsgiver said the district approved moving forward with research and modeling around three consolidation options; two of those options would close Dorset School if the district pursued that path. He said the process would likely take a few years if found feasible and would be decided by T&G voters through the district’s voting procedures.
Board members discussed the implications and noted this is an early-stage planning process rather than a final decision; Selectboard members said they will monitor the district’s modeling and public engagement.
