Midsummer School Committee meeting

The agenda for the midsummer meeting of the School Committee is up.

In addition to the usual rash of midsummer personnel appointments and some items for next year, there is one item of budgetary interest:

gb #8-169 - Mr. Monfredo/Mr. O’Connell

(June 26, 2008)

To discuss the manner in which the $445,000 in the teacher account will be utilized.

You might remember that there was some question as to whether additional money coming in should go to continue to keep down the size of elementary school classes, or to fund middle school programs. The School Committee was pretty strong in recommending the former.
But it wasn't clearly said in a vote.
It looks as though perhaps it will be made even clearer on Thursday.
