Longer-form draft.
At the April 2 Kearsarge Regional School Board meeting, New London residents Mag Francis and Larry Kloth used public comment to point out that per-pupil costs at NLES exceed those at Sutton by more than $10,000 despite similar outcomes. They also asked about future STEM and special education costs ahead of any consolidation review. The board provided no response or acknowledgment before leaving public comment. No questions were asked, no data was requested, and the topic was not placed on a future agenda. All major actions that evening—minutes approvals, purchases, contracts, and field trips—passed with 6-0-1 or 7-0-1 votes, Chair Mastin abstaining each time. The spending and consolidation concerns raised by residents remain unaddressed. https://meetingwatch.org/nh/kearsarge-regional/school-board/2026-04-02/ #MeetingWatch #KearsargeRegionalNH
