They ask you to fill out a simple, on-line survey
By
Will Collette
There’s
a simple on-line survey form HERE that takes very little
time to fill out. You should, however, put in some time to consider your responses
before you answer the survey.
Whether
or not you have kids in Chariho schools, you should respond since we are all
going to pay for whatever choices are made. Cathy and I don’t have kids but we
believe that public education is one of the best investments taxpayers can
make.
The
last four years have shown us the price we pay for ignorance.
Here
is Superintendent Picard’s letter:
Dear Chariho Community,
We
are seeking your feedback and input in a couple of ways.
First,
the Chariho Regional School Committee is looking to receive some high-level
feedback on their Necessity for School Construction options.
On
January 12, 2021, the committee discussed three possible options to discuss
further with our three town councils and to receive feedback from our families.
Click
this link to review the School Committee meeting that reviewed these
choices. This portion of the meeting begins at 55:52.
The
committee is currently reviewing the following options:
A
– Consolidating PK – 5 into One Elementary School
B
– Closing Hope Valley School- and updating the other 3 Elementary Schools
C
–Keeping current buildings and providing ongoing maintenance and infrastructure
needs.
Our
school committee would like your feedback on what option you believe would be
the best direction for our district to move forward with as we prepare to
develop an updated capital improvement plan.
Once
the committee determines the best direction based on feedback and data this
decision will then be moved to a vote for all our taxpayers to weigh in.

ensure we hear your feedback.
