Letter: Effort gives Dublin a chance to vote
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.
