I serve on the Union District 3 school board here in Vermont. It serves the Middlebury Union High School and Middlebury Union Middle School which encompasses the town of Middlebury plus other area towns within the Addison Central Supervisory Union (ACSU) here in the southern Champlain Valley in Vermont. I am the Shoreham representative to the 12 member board.

The $16M budget will go to the voters across the district on Town Meeting Day the first Tuesday in March.
