A Must read
MAKE SURE TO MAKE THESE MEETING AS A TAXPAYER THIS IS VITAL TO YOUR INPUT AND YOUR TAXES.
I have warned you over and over concerning Millers Budgets.. But you also now must be weary of Bacon . These two have done so much damage to PVRS and Pat Shearer is also a danger because she will try to push to get this budget passed ( The meeting when they will vote on whether to approve the budget will be held on March 7 at 7 p.m., unless members feel comfortable voting on the budget immediately following the hearing, Chairwoman Patricia Shearer said.Which will be on March 2nd)
This is what they are pushing for to push this on March 2 and without your voices it will pass. This committee nor the Administration can be trusted to put the well being of PVRS students and teachers ahead of there own agenda . We have seen this over and over .
Take a stand for PVRS attend the meetings!!!!!!
NORTHFIELD — After canceling twice due to inclement weather, Pioneer Valley Regional School District’s School Committee has picked a new date of March 2 for the budget hearing. It will be held at 7 p.m. in Pioneer Valley Regional School’s auditorium.
The hearing will allow administrators and school board members to explain the cutbacks and increases involved in Pioneer’s proposed fiscal year 2018 budget of approximately $14.1 million, and allow residents to ask questions and share their opinions.
During the committee’s meeting Tuesday, Superintendent Ruth Miller addressed committee members’ concerns that the regional agreement requires the committee to adopt a budget on or before Feb. 15. The regional agreement, which is different than state law on the deadline for a budget, is a document created by the four Pioneer towns — Leyden, Warwick, Bernardston and Northfield — outlining the rules under which the towns will operate by joining the school district together.
“No matter what the agreement says, we have to follow the law,” Miller said, relaying information provided to her by Christine Lynch, a consultant with the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education, who oversees regional agreements.
According to Miller, to follow state law, the committee must adopt a budget by April 30 and 45 calendar days before any of the four towns have their annual meeting. The budget will not be finalized until it is approved by the School Committee and at least three of the four member towns.
Though the new schedule will put the committee in violation of
the regional agreement, the committee plans to have the final budget
subcommittee meeting on Feb. 28 at 7 p.m. and the hearing on March 2.
The meeting when they will vote on whether to approve the budget will be
held on March 7 at 7 p.m., unless members feel comfortable voting on
the budget immediately following the hearing, Chairwoman Patricia
Shearer said.

Its come to this .
In all the years I have had kids in PVRS I do not remember this kind of destruction of property happening . Kid's are frustrated and they are angry at what this Administration is doing to there school and let me make it clear I do not condone this , but they are clearly making a statement as to who is the target of there frustrations.
Bacon nor Miller have done a thing to improve PVRS but they sure have made it a miserable place to be. But hey, in the last year the School Committee has done nothing but close its ears to teachers and students and this is now where we are it . Suggestion SC if you want this school to get better I would start by removing your Superintendent and PVRS Principal Bacon and bring back Duprey , while you still have a school to be a SC for .
Whats that old saying :
NORTHFIELD — Police are searching for the individual(s) responsible for vandalizing Pioneer Valley Regional School sometime between 10 p.m. Wednesday and 5 a.m. Thursday.
According to a post on the Northfield Police Department’s Facebook page, a window at the front of the building was intentionally struck and smashed. Police collected evidence at the scene, and estimate the cost to repair the window will be around $1,000.
The post described the vandalism as “senseless destruction.”
“It’s very unfortunate and we hope we’re able to identify who did it so we can take the appropriate steps and make things right,” Pioneer Principal Jean Bacon told The Recorder.
Police ask that anyone with information about the vandalism call 413-625-8200.
