~ Public Forum on the Proposed Act 46 Merger ~
Wednesday, January 20th 7:00 PM
Tinmouth Community Center
The Rutland South Study Committee will hold a public forum in the Community Center at 7 PM on January 20. Dave Younce, Rutland South Supervisory Union superintendent, will open the program with a presentation on the plan for merging the five Rutland South School Districts into a Unified Union District under Act 153 of 2010. The floor will be open for questions and comments. The five districts are Tinmouth, Wallingford, Clarendon, Shrewsbury and Mill River Union #40.
The plan is to merge the school districts, creating a larger district with one school board and one budget. It does not affect the operation of schools, and it has a legally binding guarantee that Tinmouth School cannot be closed unless the town votes to do so.
This forum is one of six being held by the Study Committee, which produced the plan for school district merger and secured its approval by the State Board of Education.
Tinmouth, Wallingford, Shrewsbury and Clarendon will all vote on the proposal by Australian ballot on March 1.
If you have questions about the forum, call Grant Reynolds - Tinmouth's Study Committee member, at 446-3457.
The Tinmouth School Board will meet briefly after to sign the warnings for town meeting.
