Reply to comment by TheGoldberryBombadil in Vermont House advances stricter regulations on private schools taking public tuition by casewood123

North Bennington strategically crafted its way into the choice/tuition system a few years back. Removed themselves from the public school system, shut down the elementary school and turned it independent, and gave residents the option to spend 17k on any school they want. Most of the kids are now in private/independent schools.

Wow, I didn’t know that. I know some schools up north started combining public elementary schools recently, but that seems like a pretty drastic shift.
