Quick context to catch up fast.
The FY27 school budget was balanced after addressing a projected $430,000 deficit through staffing adjustments, reduced professional development spending, and small technology supply cuts. The Select Board also reviewed $3.7 million in capital requests and a proposed $770,000 school facilities warrant article, but postponed final decisions on the article and capital recommendations.

The school budget proposal covers projected costs while prioritizing student services, special education, curriculum, staffing, and facility needs. About 80% of the school budget is personnel costs, leaving limited flexibility for other expenses. The proposed $770,000 warrant article would fund High School boiler work, roof and HVAC maintenance, and an emergency boiler system; the Select Board plans to vote on it at a later meeting.
