Dr. Azar's Official Statement on DESE Letter:

"I believe the letter from the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education is a win win for our school district and our two towns. It clearly indicates that the "compromise budget" between the Rehoboth Board of Selectmen and the School Committee was well thought out and did not reduce personnel or town services on the Rehoboth municipality. Nor did it impact school programs or staff in the school district. The letter further recognizes that Dighton has already supported their assessment.

Therefore, our administration looks forward to continue to work with all stakeholders as we have always done in the past. Our FY 2021 budget is already in progress and we will follow the directions set forth in the D.E.S.E communication."

Sincerely,
Dr. Azar
