In previous District Financial articles, we’ve provided information about how the school budget is developed and how the District Assessment is used to calculate the “local education” portion of property taxes in the nine towns in the District. We also explained the concept of unreserved fund balance.
This article will cover similar ground but will walk you through the tax calculation from the other direction (start with the property tax rates rather than with the approved budget). We’ll also explain how the unprecedented “return” of over $4 million to the towns in the District resulted in a reduction of your recent property tax bill.

It’s that time of year again from a school budget and property tax bill point of view. And it’s time to start our annual series of articles regarding the financial aspects of running the District.
We’re going to take a different approach this year. The past two years, our articles built a base of knowledge about the school budget and the property tax process. Instead of repeating some of the basics, we’re going to address aspects of these that are either new or specific to this year. As before, we won’t address any non-financial aspect of the ongoing Covid pandemic.

In our continuing commitment to provide an open, transparent, and informative dialog with the ConVal community, your School Board and Administration are pleased to announce the next ConVal quarterly Community Forum. This forum will take place in the Lucy Hurlin Theater at ConVal High School and via live stream on Tuesday, January 25, 2022, 7-9 P.M.
Learning from our first forum, we felt that the live stream community also needed to be heard and participate in the forum. Live stream participants will now be able to submit questions to the forum presenters, school board, and administration during the forum via email.
As we provided in the first forum the live feed will be on U-tube so the forum can be viewed interactively or, if needed, at your convenience any time after the forum is over.
We are putting together all the necessary logistics to make this community forum a success for all. We will send out a more comprehensive communication prior to the forum that will contain all of the needed details.
Please mark your calendars for this forum.
We thank you in advance for your participation,
ConVal School Board

It is my duty as the Chair to inform the ConVal community that Board Member Jerry Wilson (Peterborough) tendered his resignation from the Board, effective November 30, 2021, or earlier if a replacement could be found before that date.
I would like to take this time to thank Jerry for his years of service devoted to the students and communities of ConVal during his tenure. Please join me in thanking Jerry if you see him around town.
Under Board policy BBBE, the three remaining Board Members from Peterborough have selected Tom Burgess to fill the vacancy until the next District elections in March 2022. Mr. Burgess has accepted the position and will be sworn into office at the School Board meeting on Tuesday, November 16, 2021.
Thank you, Jerry for your service, and welcome to the Board, Tom.

Upcoming Events
2021-2022 School Board Goals
1. Strategic Plan
The Board will actively engage in the development of a Strategic Plan that is forward thinking, addresses the ConVal mission and vision, includes a defined pathway forward for consolidation / reorganization of the District schools for consideration by District voters, and a thorough identification of maintenance and capital needs for development of a bond proposal in March 2023.
2. Budget and Finance
The Board, in cooperation with the administration, will propose a budget that meets the needs of the District with sensitivity to the burden on taxpayers that we can present to the voters with full transparency and confidence.
3. Communication
The Board, working with the Superintendent, will increase Board communication including proactive communication with the community on Board matters, engagement of the community via forums that allow for a question and answer format, and will develop strong and supportive community connections and strong partnerships with community organizations, state and local agencies, service providers, and businesses.
4. Learning Recovery / Reopening
The Board will support the District’s learning recovery efforts to address the ongoing negative impact of the pandemic on the academic progress of our students.
