The Addison Northwest School District Board of Directors thanks the voters of the towns of Addison and Ferrisburgh for their strong voter turnout on November 5, 2019 and for their participation during these difficult conversations of school district reconfiguration. We trust that our community now recognizes the financial and demographic challenges that threaten the viability of our School District and we remain committed to providing the best possible education and opportunity for all of our preK-12 students at a cost that is sustainable for our community.

The results of these votes will inform the District’s upcoming budget work. We look forward to continued collaboration with all stakeholders to ensure a passable budget that maintains the health of the District and provides a robust educational experience for our students. That budget will be developed at school board meetings over the next three months and presented to voter approval on Town Meeting Day in March.

We urge all stakeholders to remain engaged with the school board to support our students. Upcoming school board meetings will be held at 6:00 pm in the Vergennes Union High School library on November 11, November 18, and December 9.
