There appears to have been a hold put on the School
District’s restructure plan as a result of input from the Department of
Elementary and Secondary Education.
But there remains the possibility that the proposal
will still, somehow, receive the go ahead from the School Committee. The fact
is that they have only a month left before the town election that could shift
the balance of authority on that body.
With every passing day the opportunity to implement
the proposal is increasingly diminished. By the same token, the possibility
increases that a successor committee could rescind a vote approving the plan
and roll it back.
Earlier I noted that the proposal itself contained a
letter of transmittal that was dated May 10th.
Today someone directed my attention to a posting on SchoolSpring.com.
The position was posted for a Technology/Engineering Teacher.
In the description of the position there is a
reference to “our evolving restructuring plan”.
The position was posted on SchoolSpring on May 5th.
In other words, the restructuring plan went from “evolving”
on May 5th, to being set in stone on May 10th.
Is it any wonder that the administration could not
answer the simplest questions regarding its budgetary impact?
