📰 News we're reading
• Franklin School Board's proposed budget exceeds tax cap (concordmonitor.com) — Franklin’s proposed school budget is $2.25 million over the city’s tax cap, putting arts, sports, and more than a dozen staff positions at risk unless councilors agree to override the limit. Parents, students, and teachers are urging city leaders to preserve programs they say are already stretched thin, as enrollment falls and costs for health insurance and special education rise.
