What happened
The Barre Unified School Board is addressing budget issues for the fiscal year that began on July 1. Superintendent Emilie Knisley indicated the board is planning a fourth public vote on the spending plan, with a meeting scheduled for October 5. Earlier proposed dates for the revote were complicated by proximity to the November 3 general election and required approvals from the Secretary of State’s office.
