Tuesday's School Committee Meeting Postponed

The School Committee meeting scheduled for tonight, Tuesday, Nov. 12, has been postponed due to a delay to the public posting of the meeting until last Friday.

That posting did not comply with the requirements of the Open Meeting Law for a meeting to be held tonight, so tonight's meeting will be postponed, said School Committee Chairman Rick Kraft.

The delay arose due to an email problem, the chairman said.
 
The committee members, tentatively, have set next Tuesday as the new date for the meeting, presuming that Monday's Special Town Meeting does not continue beyond Monday. 

Here is a copy of the meeting's draft agenda:
