For the 2026-2027 school year, students who live outside the participating districts will not be able to enroll through the School Choice program. The committees said current building capacity and transportation limitations supported that decision. To improve school-bus reliability, the committees approved driver pay increases and hiring bonuses, with estimated annual costs of $18,000 for Concord Public Schools and $12,000 for the regional district.
