HERE IS THE ENTIRE WACHUSETT REGIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICT PAYROLL ROSTER. READ IT AND GAG. WE DISTRICT PROPERTY TAXPAYERS ARE GETTING HOSED BIG TIME

SO, WRSD total student enrollment has dropped by 12.5% over the past 15 Fiscal Years whereas the total WRSD budget has increased 50% over the past 10 Fiscal Years. The WRSD Committee and successive Superintendents have refused to implement ANY Reductions In Force (RIFs), as authorized by Mass.Gen.Laws Ch. 71, Section 42, corresponding with the drop-off in total student enrollment. In fairness to District property taxpayers 12.5% of WRSD employees should be cut. If you aren’t already enraged, it gets even worse– the WRSD proposes, as of right now, A TOTAL BUDGET INCREASE FOR NEXT FISCAL OF 6.18%, FROM $121,979,287 THIS YEAR TO $129,515,225 NEXT FISCAL YEAR. IN ADDITION, THE WRSD PROPOSES TO HIRE 17 NEW TEACHERS. AT THIS YEAR’S STERLING ANNUAL TOWN MEETING VOTE TO SHOOT DOWN THE WRSD’s REQUEST TO STERLING FOR THE ENTIRE AMOUNT ABOVE STERLING’S STATE-REQUIRED NET MINIMUM CONTRIBUTION TO THE WRSD.

Here is entire, current WRSD payroll roster. Read it and gag–

    1. Mr. Cary,

      Thank you. Since this Blog post was posted last year WRSD total student enrollment has dropped another 130, DESPITE the fact that the WRSD Committee, last year, voted to re-instate “school choice” in an attempt to grab students from neighboring school districts. SO, the WRSD payroll bloat is even MORE pronounced this year. WRSD student testing results are sub-standard and the WRSD is permeated by ‘Wokeness,’ DEI attitudes, and LGBTQ propaganda and brainwashing. Families are seeking alternatives to the WRSD for very good reasons.

      Best Regards,

      2. You are very welcome. Check out my other Blog posts about the bloated, incompetent, wasteful, failing WRSD. Peak WRSD student enrollment was 7493 in Fiscal Year 2010. It has been falling ever since. This year total WRSD student enrollment is 6427. That’s a total drop of more than 1000, or 14.5%. MEANWHILE, from Fiscal Year 2015, the bloated, out-of-control WRSD budget increased from $81.3 million to $129,515,225 this Fiscal Year, an OUTRAGEOS increase of 59%. The WRSD is just another failing government money pit.

        Good Luck!
