Directors of the Bennington School District Inc and the Mt Anthony Union High School District will hold a joint meeting to discuss space issues and building priorities. The discussion stems from William F D Smith's move at the BSD meeting and concerns about the fate of the Bendi building if MAUHS ends its 12500 dollar annual rental. The Mt Anthony board worries the current school is at capacity and contemplates future construction and reuse scenarios for Bendi.
