CESU Proposed School District Unification Vote
on November 4, 2014
on November 4, 2014
Dear Community Members,
Over the course of the past 11 months, the Chittenden East Voluntary Merger Planning Committee (VMPC) has been studying and discussing unifying Chittenden East Supervisory Union’s (CESU) eight school districts into one unified school system. As part of its work, the VMPC has prepared a Report and Articles of Agreement outlining the framework of a proposed unified school district. The report and articles were submitted to the Vermont State Board of Education on July 29, 2014. After review and an affirmative recommendation from the Vermont Agency of Education, the State Board of Education approved the report and articles on August 19, 2014. The action of the State Board of Education established a date for the electorates of Bolton, Huntington, Jericho, Richmond, Underhill Incorporated and Underhill Town School Districts to vote on unifying CESU’s eight districts. This vote will take place in conjunction with the state and federal elections on November 4, 2014. Per state statute, the unified school district can look different depending on how many towns approve the unification article. If the unification article passes in all of CESU’s member municipalities, a Unified Union School District will be formed. If the article passes in a majority of CESU’s municipalities (i.e. four out six), a Modified Union School District will be established. Under a Modified Union School District, one or two towns that do not pass the unification article will continue as an independent elementary district and have proportional representation on the new Modified Union School District Board.
As specified in state law, elections of board directors must take place on the same date that the unification article is voted. Community members interested in serving on this new union school board can pick up petitions at their local town office. Residents of the following school districts can find petitions at these locations:
