Bennington BSD reports 68000 surplus and planning notes
Bennington School District Inc chairman Anthony Pello announced about 68000 more in treasury than the budget estimated, due to higher Grand List revenue and uncounted delinquents. He said tax revenue fluctuations should level in a couple of years as the base is settled. The board also heard guidance counselor Barriere discuss testing procedures and counselor staffing shortages, noting Vermont reimbursement for the first two years of salary. Also: budget timelines, a proposed tour of the Bendix building, and denial of three weeks vacation pay for former assistant superintendent Roy.
