Despite the staffing cuts, instructional spending remains largely level at just under $22 million. Support services spending is proposed at about $13.3 million, an increase of less than half a percent. The elimination of 20 positions, they said, is a key component of keeping the budget in check. The deliberative session is scheduled for Monday, Feb. 2, at 6:30 p.m. at Fall Mountain Regional High School in Langdon. Additional information on the proposed budget and warrant articles is available on the district’s website.
