Discussion:

The School Board will hold an (in-person) informational meeting at Cabot School on Monday, March 28th at 6:30pm.

On March 17, 2022 the board voted to approve another proposed budget. The proposal includes a $28,000 reduction in authorized expenditures, reducing proposed budgeted expenditures to $3,450,377.00. This also reduces per-pupil spending to $19,844.00 – below the excess spending threshold. This is a 0.7% reduction from the budget defeated on Town Meeting Day, and would reduce the anticipated tax impact by $0.01 per $100 of assessed value versus that proposal – at anticipated rate of $1.74. This is $0.02 increase versus the current year, and is $0.01 above the average tax rate for the period of FY 2017 – FY 2023. A more detailed discussion of the budget will occur at the informational meeting.

As noted above, voting will take place by Australian Ballot at the Willey Building. Absentee ballots must be requested from the Town Clerk's Office.
