CONWAY — SAU 9 and 13 will host a presentation about New Hampshire’s education funding system on Wednesday at 6 p.m. in Kennett High's Loynd Auditorium.
The presentation was designed by attorneys John Tobin and Andru Volinsky, who sued the state over education funding in the landmark Claremont case more than 25 years ago.
