The first ACSD School Board Town Hall is Monday, October 5th at 6pm at Weybridge Elementary School. Child care & light refreshments provided. Learn how the statewide education transformation legislation will impact ACSD. Share hopes & ask questions about the future. Community members from all ACSD towns are welcome to attend any School Board Town Hall. 

Congratulations to Chris Pratt who received the Barbara Whittemore Staff of the Year Award! Chris was honored for his work as the lead custodian at Mary Hogan where he makes sure the school is ready for learning and leads an amazing team with care, patience, and good humor. He celebrates students and helps them know that they matter and that their care for their school community matters too!

🗳️🌟Thank you to the voters of our ACSD towns for your overwhelming support of our FY 2027 Budget! We also want to welcome new ACSD Board members, Robyn Zeliff-Stattel and James Clark and returning Board member, Jason Chance. Thank you to outgoing members Suzanne Buck, Tricia Allen, and Ellie Romp for their years of service!

The voters also approved the closure of Ripton Elementary School.

There is still one remaining Middlebury ACSD Board seat. The Board anticipates appointing someone to fill the open Middlebury spot. If you are interested, write to board@acsdvt.org.
