The special School Committee forum that was going to be held tonight (Tuesday 3/30/21) to discuss the solar array has been cancelled. The District received new information yesterday that needs to be considered before the School Committee can vote on a recommendation. Currently, there are many outstanding questions and causes for concern that must be settled before proceeding with the solar array installation. Once we have done our due diligence, we will re-engage the community in discussions on this topic. We sincerely appreciate your interest and advocacy.
