(H.C.R.136)
Offered by: Representatives Sibilia of Dover, Birong of Vergennes, Brennan of
Colchester, Burke of Brattleboro, Buss of Woodstock, Carpenter of Hyde Park, Christie of
Hartford, Elder of Starksboro, Goldman of Rockingham, Graning of Jericho, Hango of
Berkshire, Labor of Morgan, LaLonde of South Burlington, Lipsky of Stowe, Long of
Newfane, McGill of Bridport, Morrissey of Bennington, Pajala of Londonderry, Patt of
Worcester, and Stebbins of Burlington Whereas, the education of Vermont’s youth is of great importance, and the role of local school board members is essential in this process, and Whereas, all too often, Vermonters do not fully appreciate the scope of the commitment school board members must make to their duties and the challenges they encounter performing this critical civic role, and Whereas, school board members have responded to major developments, such as district consolidations and the presence of PCB contamination, but they also address a variety of
more mundane, yet no less important, issues, and Whereas, these special community public servants deserve our admiration and respect for their continuing devotion to the success of public education in Vermont, now therefore be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives:
That the General Assembly recognizes February 2024 as School Board Recognition Month in Vermont, and be it further Resolved: That the Secretary of State be directed to send a copy of this resolution to
the Vermont School Board Association.
