Learning Lunch: The Fiscal Crisis in Rural Schools: Can It Be Fixed?

Join MASC Rural Schools Committee co-chairs Jessica Corwin and Martha Thurber for a look at the challenges facing rural schools – those that are unique and those common to all districts. This workshop will present a brief history of the fight for rural school equity in Massachusetts, review the findings of multiple commissions and reports on rural school finance and look at potential solutions, including some that would benefit districts of all sizes and locations. You will also hear more about the MASC Rural Schools Committee and the group’s current work.
