Dear Families,
Thursday, April 14, 5:00-2:15 - FOWE community meeting at WES with Superintendent Baker: We hope you will join us for a discussion regarding school reform (governance and finance) and how we can engage legislatively. H.454 was passed in the House Friday morning with some amendments and will now advance to the Senate next week where it will likely undergo further revision. Please join us.
Grand Friends Tea - As in the past, this was a lovely event for all involved. The formal tea sets, the delicate delicacies, the mix of generations, the visible love shared, and earnest conversations all collected up perfectly. Again, thanks to all who helped in making it happen.
Lunch volunteers - We need volunteers for next Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. If you can volunteer for one of these days, please email me cjohnston@acsdvt.org or sign up directly on the calendar.
VTCAP state testing - We’re winding down! Grades 3 and 4 have completed the assessments. Grade 5 is nearing completion. The observer from the Vermont Agency of Education came this past Wednesday and while we were a bit nervous about it, it turned out to be a very relaxed, supportive experience. We’ll get a report regarding our administration process sometime in May.
Best, Christina

Substitute teachers are crucial for our students, staff, staff, and schools! We are increasing our daily substitute teaching rate to $160/day for unlicensed subs and $200/day for licensed subs. This change begins on Wednesday, March 5, 2025 when students return from winter break. This flat rate replaces our sliding rate of pay for subs depending on the number of days worked.
