Vermont’s Act 73 Redistricting Task Force recommended a voluntary, community-driven approach to school restructuring, emphasizing shared services and regional cooperation over forced mergers, citing evidence that large consolidations often increase costs and weaken community ties.
The proposal, supported by the Rural School Community Alliance, aims to preserve rural schools and local control while achieving savings through collaboration.
