Tuition agreement article to go to public hearing Jan. 2, vote at town meeting Jan. 16
Summary
The board will forward a tuition-agreement article to the Board of Selectmen; a public hearing is scheduled for Jan. 2, 2025 (time to be confirmed) and the town meeting vote is set for Jan. 16, 2025. The superintendent clarified the difference between the informational public hearing and the binding town meeting vote.
The board reviewed an article on a proposed tuition agreement included in the meeting packet and agreed to forward it to the Board of Selectmen. Superintendent Emily explained the procedural sequence: the public hearing (planned for Jan. 2, 2025) is informational, and the town meeting (planned for Jan. 16, 2025) is where voters will cast a binding vote.
Board members discussed attending the hearing and town meeting to support the article and receive public input; the superintendent noted the district cannot negotiate terms with other districts until voters grant authority at the town meeting. Members were advised the selectmen will call the public hearing and the town clerk will publish the meeting call.
