SEEKING SOLUTIONS: Region 14 CTE at ConVal High School works to prepare students for ever-changing job market

02-20-2025 12:02 PM

Earlier this year, the ConVal School Board introduced a $44 million proposal that would have included renovations to ConVal High School’s Career and Technical Education center. The proposal was withdrawn over concerns about cost. Even without the ConVal expansion, CTEs play a critical role in the education of hundreds of local students. This article is the first of a series that looks at the region’s CTEs and how they are playing that role.

Letter: Effort gives Dublin a chance to vote
02-18-2025 3:49 PM

The Feb. 6 Monadnock Ledger-Transcript contained a letter, “Not everyone in Dublin,” regarding the withdrawal process from ConVal. The authors of this letter chose to cast aspersions on one member of the Dublin Education Advisory Committee. It also contained several inaccurate statements. They stated that “there has been no vote on this issue.” In fact, Dublin voted overwhelmingly to authorize the withdrawal study. The DEAC, appointed by the Select Board, voted to recommend withdrawal. Our Select Board voted unanimously to support withdrawal.
