We are in the middle of budget season, Superintendent Aaron Dean said at Monday s school committee meeting. In the middle of everything we are in right now, we have to build a budget that is reflective of everything we want to do. Business Manager Erika Snyder said the district anticipates a small increase in Chapter 70 education funding typical of past years. She said funding will likely go up $30 per foundation enrollment student. All in all, she said, the district would be looking at a $21,875 increase that will likely not cover fixed increases. We can t do much with that, Snyder said. Any kind of increase we find in our budget falls to the towns. So we have some work to do in terms of getting our budget to where we can present it to the School Committee and the towns.

The board members volleyed the updated agreement Tuesday to the School Committee to gauge its feelings on a possible rent increase. The discussion began after the former town administrator gave the district permission to clean out the old library space to house a remote access space for teachers without a stable internet connection for remote instruction. It was found that the room was not actually part of the central office s lease agreement and, after taking a deeper look at the agreement, it was agreed by all parties that it needed to be updated. Superintendent Arron Dean said the district would be interested in adding the room permanently to its lease. He said the current Special Education office is quite small and the larger library would be a better fit.
