Alford Protests Busing of Pupils to Five Towns
A five member delegation from Alford asked the School Committee to put to a vote a plan to move Grades 1 through 4 from Alford School to nearby towns and open a Kindergarten in Alford. The group argued district rules require a local school in each town and urged a townwide vote, while officials cited cost savings and policy legality. The committee did not rescind its decision and will decide at next meeting.

Great Barrington Sees Local Aid Drop And Tax Hike Likely
Great Barrington faces a likely tax rate rise after another year of reduced Local Aid Fund support. The Cherry Sheet shows 1970 state aid of 274001 dollars, down 3606 from last year, with Assessor John M. Watson noting a preliminary hike of about 66 cents per 1000 of assessed value, though final rates remain uncertain. If total assessed value rises sharply, the impact could be larger.
