An alternate look at news, views, opinions, stories, and information on the administration of The Region One School District in Connecticut, and when you post, you do NOT have to fill in your email or name…
This is the second meeting in a row where this board has welcomed out of region vocational agriculture students into the High School. I am certain these students are a wonderful asset to our school community and certainly help lessen enrollment worries. But … With the oft quoted figure of $26,000 per student cost (a figure probably greater for Ag students) why are these students paying a tuition of $7,000.00? Is Region One providing a $19,000.00 subsidy for these students?
