A deliberative session for the 2024-2025 Shaker Regional school budget will be held on Wednesday, Feb. 7, at Belmont High School beginning at 6 pm. All warrant articles will be considered at this session. There will be opportunities for explanation, discussion and amendment of each article. The conclusion of each article will result in voting either to add the article to the ballot for voting on Election Day in its original form or to add the article to the ballot for voting as amended. When the deliberative session is adjourned, the language of each article will be finalized, but there will be no decision on whether or not it is passed.

On Election Day, Tuesday, March 12, voters will mark “yes” or “no” on each warrant article in the voting booths with the outcome of each article being decided. Candidates for the open school board seats will also be on the ballot. Belmont residents will vote at Belmont High School and Canterbury residents will vote at the Town Hall. Individuals who qualify for absentee voting may contact the SAU Office at 603-267-9223 for information.
