BARTLETT — While still in the very early stages, members of the MWV Cooperative District Planning Board have been asked to do a little homework. Representatives for the eight towns were asked to meet and decide what they would like to get out of a possible cooperative at Kennett High School.
The Bartlett Co-op Planning Committee, which is being represented by school board member Scott Grant, along with selectman Gene Chandler and citizen Bob King met Oct. 27 at the fire station in Glen to set board goals. The trio determined a seat at the table providing governance was not as important to them as was a more equitable tuition rate.
