School Regional Amendment Planning Committee Formation Underway
The school & town are seeking a member of the community interested in serving on a new Regional Amendment Planning Committee recently voted for formation by the Mahar RSD Committee after consultation and review of most current Commonwealth regionalization experiences.The purpose of the group is to explore the benefits of regionalizing the towns not just at the secondary level (as we are now), but also at the elementary level. The first meeting is scheduled for Thursday, August 2, 6:30 PM, at Mahar Regional School. Each town will have three representatives: School Committee member, Selectboard member (or Finance Comm. member in towns where allowed), and one community member. The community member needs to be a Petersham resident, but does not need to have a child in the Center School - present, past, or future. For questions or if interested in being on the committee, please contact Center School Committee Chair Lynn Peredina at lperedina@petershamcenterschool.org or the Selectboard Office at stevenboudreau391@gmail.com A list of those interested will be submitted to the Selectboard for committee formation and appointment.
