Bristol School Budget Fears Spur Reappraisal Plan
The 1933 Bristol School Committee warned the Budget Commission that proposed budget cuts would harm the school system. Bristol ranked near the town low in per pupil cost, and Albert Flint Jr proposed a town wide reappraisal of buildings with no cost to the community to secure insurance at a fair rate. Action on resigning Tax Assessor Robert Newbold was deferred amid tax book printing delays. A pension bill for married retired women teachers was introduced in the Senate. Mrs. Marcia Gifford was installed as Babbit Girls' Club president. Mrs. Vasta L. Ruggiero led St. Rita's Club. Miss Helen Valante wed Walter Borello.
