As a Sudbury parent, I’m asking neighbors to vote no on Article 4 at the May 20 Special Town Meeting. The school committee this petition targets fought for summer learning programs, established formal support structures for special education families, and gracefully managed budget cuts. When I think about what I actually want for my kids in…

I have a son at Haynes and will have a daughter there in the fall, I’ll be voting no on Article 4 on May 20. This school committee held class sizes through $1.6 million in budget cuts, got the roof funded, and built real infrastructure around special education families. SPS was one of only 63…
As a Sudbury dad I’ve watched this school committee make hard calls without losing sight of what matters. They cut $1.6 million from the budget and still protected class sizes. They secured roof funding for Haynes and Nixon. They built real support structures for kids with disabilities. The no confidence petition against them cites no…
I support the Sudbury Public School Committee's commitment to inclusion at all levels. Specifically, I appreciate their policy changes to support LGBTQ+ students and families, students with disabilities, and religious and cultural inclusion. Sudbury has a great school system and it needs to be great for everyone. Providing equity for marginalized groups ensures all students have…
The Sudbury School Committee has done a great job in my eyes. They consistently and thoughtfully consider the needs of ALL students as they advocate for SPS policies that will make all feel welcomed and safe while continuing to rank among the best schools in the country. They also earned my support by conducting a…
As a L-S graduate (class of 2003), I can speak firsthand to the excellent education provided by our public schools. I am in full support of the Sudbury School Committee, particularly for its oversight on the budget and management of the millions of taxpayer dollars that fund the school system. I plan to attend the May…
I appreciate the hard work and time that the volunteers on the school committee have given to all of the students. I believe they all bring knowledge and a good understanding of what our schools need. They have worked very hard for the summer programming and keeping it running.
I plan to attend the…
Reject Article 3. Accountability is not unimportant — it is essential — but this proposal is so permissive that it would expose every elected official in Sudbury to removal on the basis of nothing more than organized personal grievance. A small faction who take the notion will be able to overthrow the votes cast…
A Citizen Petition requiring the calling of a Special Town Meeting (STM) for May 20, at a cost to the town of about $20,000, was filed with the Town Clerk in April. The petition is asking the town for a vote of ‘no confidence’ against the Sudbury Public School Committee. Such a claim is unprecedented…
The League of Women Voters of Sudbury opposes Warrant Articles 3 and 4 at the May 20 Special Town Meeting. Article 3 calls for a change to Sudbury’s charter to create a recall election process. Article 4 asks for a non-binding vote of no confidence in the Sudbury School Committee.
The Sudbury LWV opposes…
