Letter to the editor: Kramer touted for ACSD panel

As a father of two young children attending school in our district, Chris is fully invested in the future of our schools, the success of our students, and the strength of our towns.

The past several years have been traumatic for our Mount Abraham Unified School District educational community.

The ACSD school board ballot will be very full this year. I am proud to support Hilda Stone and Ron Makleff.

I do not come to this role with my mind set on solutions. I am open minded and humble about what I need to learn from prior work and others’ expertise.

I feel that Ellen has the skills and temperament to advocate for Cornwall on the board and to work with representatives of the other towns to reach equitable solutions for the stakeholders in this complicated process.

I am writing to express my support for Suzanne Buck on the ACSD Board. I have known Suzanne for a few years now, and currently serve with her on the ACSD Board.

I appreciate all the interest in the school board and those fellow community members who are willing to make the investment of time and deliberation for the benefit of all our students.

I am writing to urge others in joining me in voting for Ellen Whelan-Wuest in Cornwall, Ron Makleff in Middlebury, and Hilda Stone in Bridport for ACSD Board.

As community members who have endorsed Chris Kramer for ACSD Board, we are writing to provide a bit more context for our endorsements.

Especially as we’re emerging from the pandemic years, we need board members who can refocus on the most important priorities.

I’m voting for Jason Chance for the ACSD School Board on March 7th and I am writing to encourage you to vote for him too.

Addison Northwest School District (ANWSD) residents on March 7 will decide the fate of a district budget proposal that calls for a roughly 13% spending increase of about $3 million to $25,312,768.

The Independent posed five questions to each of the nine ACSD board candidates involved in contested races.

While a wintry mix of snow and freezing rain fell outside the Lincoln Community School this past Friday, those inside the elementary school were being transported to the tropical destination of Cameroon. 

Students and instructors representing three programs at the P.A. Hannaford Career Center in Middlebury have been awarded nearly $10,000 for a competitive STEAM grant through the Agency of Education.
