Lincoln begins filling school jobs, eyes budget

The Lincoln School District is now looking to staff its central office as it prepares for beginning operations later this year.

More than 50 excited Lincoln residents filled Burnham Hall this past Thursday for the Lincoln School District’s first annual meeting, an event typically held as part of Town Meeting Day in March.

Despite the state’s decisive determination that Ripton will not be ready to provide educational services to its students, Lincoln School District remains confident.

The excitement was palpable in Lincoln’s Burnham Hall last Thursday, at the town’s first Lincoln School District informational meeting on July 28.

The town of Lincoln has won tepid, begrudging approval from the Vermont State Board of Education to separate from the Mount Abraham Unified School District and form an independent Lincoln School District.
