Amherst PTA
April 2024
Thank You!
Thank you to everyone that supported Warrant Articles 12 and 13! Article 13 (the Operating Budget) passed, and Article 12 (the Wilkins Building Project) received 54% of the vote! We were excited to see that it received a majority, but it needed 60% to pass. But we made progress! Stay tuned for updates on how the district will be moving forward to finding a solution to our facilities needs.
