Vermont School Budget Passes After Third Vote

After two failed votes, Vermont’s Kingdom East School District finally got its budget approved—bringing in $53 million, a 6% increase over last year. To win voter support, the district slashed 27 open positions and cut back on transportation, tech, and athletics. District president Lindsay Carpenter called it a huge relief, freeing up staff to restart summer programs and avoid costly borrowing. This win marks a crucial turning point for the school year ahead.
