Voters asked to approve $1.1million for school operating costs and $21 million for Middle School projects

Needham will vote on two ballot questions for the schools on April 10, 2007. Question 1 asks for $1.1 million for school operating costs. Question 2 asks voters to approve $21 million to fund two middle school projects: a renovation and addition to transform the vacant High Rock Elementary School into a sixth-grade center and a technology infrastructure upgrade at the Pollard Middle School.  In addition to the override questions voters will also be asked to elect 3 candidates (for 3 year terms) to the Needham School Committee.

The Needham Public Schools website has information about both questions, including a list of cuts that will be made if Question 1 fails and some FAQs on the High Rock and Pollards projects. You can read this information at:

The Yes for Needham Campaign is working to pass both questions.
