There’s an “all hands on deck” call to Belmont parents to show up to Wednesday evening’s Warrant Committee meeting, where the Superintendent’s Recommended Budget Request for FY09 will be presented to the Warrant Committee. The Warrant Committee meeting begins at 7:30PM in the Community Room of the Chenery Middle School.
If you’re a parent of school age children, it’s time to come out and show support for the schools and the School Committee’s proposed budget, which includes funding to replace the aging Wellington School, among other priorities.
Whether you’re for proposals like rebuilding Wellington or funding full day kindergarten or against them, there’s plenty for everyone to agree on when it comes to the schools: the need for small class sizes, top flight instructors, necessary repairs to the high school, and on and on. Standing behind the School Committee as it presents its budget to the Warrant Committee is a great way to show those people who have their hands on the town’s purse strings that our schools matter.
See you Wednesday evening!
