What’s going on in Montpelier and what you can do

Please bring your friends and neighbors to a community forum led by Senators Seth Bongartz and Rob Plunkett to review the impact of various education reform proposals being considered in Montpelier, and how they would impact the unique system of school choice in our region.

Date: Monday, March 31st
Time: 5:30PM
Location: Riley Center at Burr and Burton Academy in Manchester

There is near universal recognition that Vermont’s education system is overdue for major structural reform, and several major proposals are taking shape in Montpelier.  Powerful forces are trying to shape these proposals in a way that would eliminate school choice and access to independent schools like Burr and Burton, Long Trail School, Stratton Mountain School, and others.

Learn more about these efforts and what your senators are doing to advance education reform without
jeopardizing school choice and access to independent schools in our region.  

Now, more than ever, our community needs to be unified, and we need your support.

Please join us on Monday, March 31st to learn what you can do to support efforts to maintain our unique system of school choice.
