Highlights of next year's budget shows an increase of 1.85% and a deep cut in state funds
This past Monday night, Martha’s Vineyard Regional High School (MVRHS) principal Dr. Stephen Nixon presented the fiscal year 2013 school budget. This was the first step in a long budget process that ends next April when the towns will vote on it. The proposed budget is $16.9 million, which is an increase of 1.85 percent or about $300,000 more than last year. While that is not much of an increase, nearly $17 million is still a lot of money. “I wish more people would have come,” Nixon said of the public meeting last Monday. “Because I really want people to understand why we need to cut this or why salaries are what they are. There are reasons for everything, nothing is arbitrary.” In order for the budget to pass, four of the six towns need …

Oak Bluffs and Tisbury Schools head into the year with new principals and assistant principals in charge.
The start of a new school year is a time of much excitement and, usually, a good dose of apprehension, too. Until seeing all of those familiar faces, the idea of going back to school can make even the well-seasoned eighth grader anxious. Students heading back to Oak Bluffs and Tisbury Schools will have some important new faces to greet them this year as both schools have new principals. The Tisbury School also will have a new assistant principal. In case the end of the school year seems like light years ago, here's a quick recap. At the tail end of the 2010–2011 school year, Dr. James Weiss, superintendent of Martha’s Vineyard Public Schools, announced that as of August 1, 2011 Tisbury School principal Richard Smith would take over the …
