Good Evening,
I wish to once again thank members of the community for their active engagement during what was a challenging budget development process.
I am pleased to share with you the proposed 2024-2025 Berlin CSD Budget was overwhelmingly passed by the voters this evening by 68% with 289 Yes votes and 137 No votes. In addition voters elected two Board of Education members, Katie Snyder and Penni Eggsware, and approved the purchase of up to four school buses, including two school bus vehicles and two 7-passenger vehicles.
The voter turnout and the outcome signifies the commitment our community has to our schools and our students. Thank you to everyone who came out to cast their vote.
Sincerely,
