March 11, 2021ASHLAND Most of the March 2 meeting of the Ashland School Board was devoted to
a non-public session that lasted almost two hours, half devoted to a discussion of a proposed ventilation system for the school building (which included proprietary information), and half to a discussion with an attorney. The School Board later voted to buy a freezer, discussed pandemic issues, and learned of school activities. Assistant Superintendent Trish Temperino reported that the walk in freezer in the school kitchen had failed. It was repaired, but $3,400 worth of food was lost. The Facilities Committee has recommended the replacement of the freezer (which is at least 30 years old) with a new freezer equipped with an alarm system. Maintenance Manager Tim Paquette said that, if the freezer was ordered now, it could be installed during the April school vacation. The School Board agreed, voting unanimously for a new freezer.
