Accountability matters. When significant decisions—especially those involving school closures and unlisted budget transfers—happen off-agenda, the community loses its ability to participate. #Kearsarge #SchoolBoard https://meetingwatch.org/nh/kearsarge-regional/school-board/2026-07-23/

Longer-form draft.
At the July 23 Kearsarge Regional School Board meeting, several high-stakes decisions were made that residents had no prior opportunity to prepare for, as they were not included on the published agenda. Most notably, the Board approved an $18,500 budget transfer for a sole-source bid with First-Educational Resources and moved into discussions regarding emergency contingency planning for the potential closure of Simonds and Sutton Elementary schools. Because these topics were not on the agenda, the public was not given the notice required to attend or voice concerns specifically regarding these significant shifts in district policy and facilities. Furthermore, when a community member presented data regarding declining student enrollment and requested that the Board 'show its work' by providing transparent data, the Board moved to exit the public comment portion of the meeting without providing a verbal response or addressing the request. As the Board begins to develop contingency plans for school restructuring, residents deserve both prior notice on the agenda and transparent data to understand the reasoning behind these potentially life-altering decisions. https://meetingwatch.org/nh/kearsarge-regional/school-board/2026-07-23/ #MeetingWatch #KearsargeRegionalNH
