Longer-form draft.
At the June 8 Kearsarge Regional School Board meeting, a major decision was made that will significantly impact the district: the Board voted unanimously to terminate Superintendent Fortney’s contract, effective June 12, 2026. This decision was made under the provisions of 'paragraph 8' of the Superintendent's contract. Furthermore, the Board has authorized the Chair and Vice Chair to negotiate the specific financial settlements and terms related to this termination. This means taxpayers may face unexpected costs as the district works to finalize the terms of this departure. Beyond the leadership change, the Board also voted to seal the minutes from their non-public session for 30 years. While personnel discussions are often handled privately, the suddenness of this termination and the scale of the settlement negotiations require close community oversight. We will continue to monitor the district's leadership transition and the fiscal impact on our schools. https://meetingwatch.org/nh/kearsarge-regional/school-board/2026-06-08/ #MeetingWatch #KearsargeRegionalNH
