The decisions are too important and the impact is too great. The board has been trained on community engagement - didactic presentations replete with Excel spreadsheets and Q&A are not community engagement.

They run at lower cost as they are independent of unions and the school board. Would require the community to rally but there a ton of intelligent, concerned parents. I recall choosing to live here due to the former gold status of WES. Since then, all test scores have only dropped. Cost will go up as parents explore private schools. Let explore charter schools as a way to keep our kids here and offer a better and lower cost education.

Without the option of a robust and vibrant village school, my family would never have moved to Moretown. We moved here for many reasons, one of the top being The Moretown School. There is a net-loss to any situation where closing an elementary school becomes a foregone conclusion. It saves so little money at the expense of so much of what makes our community strong and resilient. #MoretownStrong
