Amherst School Committee Meeting Postponed to March 20

The previously scheduled March 18 meeting of the Amherst School Committee (ASC) is postponed to Thursday, March 20 at the same time and place (6:30pm, ARHS library).

The reason for the rescheduling is that, per MA Open Meeting Law, School Committee meetings need to be publicly posted 48 hours in advance (not including weekends and holidays). For the Amherst School Committee, the official posting location is the Town of Amherst’s online calendar. In the case of the March 18 meeting, the ASC chair (me) neglected to post the meeting in the official location. So, the meeting has to be postponed at least 48 hours, so that it can be publicly posted (which it now is).

FYI, since the Regional School Committee is not within the Town of Amherst, the Regional School Committee’s official posting location is BoardDocs, the meeting website/platform for the three School Committees (Amherst, Pelham, Regional)
