Embrace change.  At its November business meeting on the 6th, the Blue Ridge School Board approved a contract with Sapphire Software of Allentown initially worth over $38,000 to replace its primary digital management system with a package called SapphireK12.  Recognizing that the aging MMS platform (Modular Management System from Computer Resources of New Hampshire) was no longer meeting the needs of the district, the transition is expected to take nearly a year to implement.

The Great Bend Borough Council got together on November 8th to decide on a budget for 2018.  Residents and taxpayers will have a month to review and comment on the spending plan that calls for no change at all, and no tax rate increase.  But that doesn’t mean that there was no room for debate, particularly about the cost of the little town’s police department.
