This session of the radio show shares my recorded conversation with Franklin School Committee Chair Dave Callaghan. We had our conversation in person at the Franklin TV Studio on Monday, February 26, 2024.
The School Committee had their regular meeting on Tuesday, February 13, 2024. We recap that meeting in our discussion.
Recall that Tuesday, a snow storm was forecast, school canceled, the meeting went virtual and the snow didn’t fully come to pass in the amount expected.
Topics:
- SAFE Coalition Overview - Jennifer Knight-Levin
- Budget Overview
- Costa Rica Field Trip Proposal
- Italy Field Trip Proposal
- Joint Budget Subcommittee of March 6 starts the formal process to develop the FY 2025 budget
The recording runs about 43 minutes so let’s listen to my “chalkboard chat” with School Committee Chair Dave Callaghan.
