How would we implement these changes?

The Town would likely have to hire a labor attorney to help develop a framework to transfer employees from the DR District to the Town. This would be a one-time cost.It is important to point out that there are many towns in our area of the State in which the school employees are employees of the town--Seekonk, Swansea, Norton to name a few. Berkley has an independent K-8, as does Somerset, but their High School is still a Regional District—an example of how our set-up would work.
