Barber Rebukes Sisters On Faculty House Issue
Bennington Town Counsel Norton Barber rebuked Sisters Francis J. Hogan and Richard A. Sleeman for attempting to place 15 campus faculty homes on the Grand List, calling the move illegal and futile. He warned the listers against court battles and urged them to file suit as private citizens or push the matter to the legislature. The dispute, a clash over tax exempt status of college housing, centers on BCA ruling and possible Vermont Supreme Court involvement.

St Francis closing may push Bennington schools to rethink space
The impending closure of St Francis de Sales Academy, decided by the Sisters of St Joseph due to fewer teaching nuns, will trigger a reexamination of BSD space needs and possible long postponed actions. About 130 new students will enter six BSD grades next fall, necessitating extra classes and teachers, and potentially space in St Francis or a two room unit on campus. The move could affect Sacred Heart School, rental terms for Catamount Elementary, and future use of Old Bennington High School as a junior high annex, with a remodeling or relocation plan depending on classroom availability.
