6th Grade Informational Forum

Monday, October 28, 2019
6:30 PM
Rollinsford Grade School Gym

Please join us for a public forum to discuss the feasibility of sending our 6th graders to Marshwood. The purpose of the forum is to hear from you all and answer your questions or concerns.

A panel of experts will take questions and provide information on:

– The advantages of students remaining in a K-6 environment
– The advantages of students entering middle school for 6th grade
– The financial impact of sending 6th grade to Marshwood

There will be plenty of time for questions and comments from the public. We look forward to seeing everyone there!

Community Involvement Requested

The warrant article to study the feasibility of Rollinsford’s withdrawal from SAU56 passed, and the School Board is now in the process of forming a Planning Committee to do just that.

In accordance with RSA 194-C:2, the committee will be comprised of two School Board members, a member of the Budget Committee, four community members, and the superintendent. If the committee recommends withdrawal (or reorganization of the existing SAU), it will prepare a plan that complies with the requirements in section 8 of RSA 194-C:2.

With that in mind, we are now seeking four community members to participate in the committee!

If you are interested in joining the committee as a community member, please email [email protected] by April 10, 2019.

The first meeting of the committee is scheduled for May 2, 2019, time to be determined.

Thank you!

Rollinsford School Board
