Regional schools update

• You might remember that Quabbin Regional is still without a budget for FY13. The state was to impose a budget by December 1, but Oakham has asked for a delay to speak with DESE about it.
• The 20-member Wachusett Regional School Committee is up for two additional members from Holden unless they rewrite their regional agreement. The Committee last night voted to look at rewriting the agreement, rather than expanding the board. Any chance in the agreement not only requires DESE approval; it also requires the approval of a super majority of all five member towns at town meeting.
