THE BLOATED, OVER-SPENDING, SUB-STANDARD WACHUSETT REGIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICT, WITH MORE THAN 1000 EMPLOYEES AND CRATERING TOTAL STUDENT ENROLLMENT, FORCES THE TOWN OF HOLDEN INTO A $5.5 MILLION PROPOSITION 2 ½ OVERRIDE

WELL FOLKS, last year the cowardly buffoons running the Town of Holden spent EVERY DIME of Holden’s available funds to stave off a Proposition 2 ½ override. This year their cowardice and stupidity caught up with them and bit them in the ass BIG TIME. SO, Holden voters will be presented with a $5.5 Million Proposition 2 ½ Override on 11 May 2026.

WHAT BACKED THE TOWN OF HOLDEN INTO THIS GIGANTIC FINANCIAL HOLE ???

NONE OTHER THAN THE BLOATED, OVER-SPENDING, SUB-STANDARD WACHUSETT REGIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICT THAT CONTINUED TO HIRE ADDITIONAL EMPLOYEES EACH YEAR—NOW TOTALING MORE THAN 1000—WHILE THE WRSD TOTAL STUDENT ENROLLMENT PLUMMETED FROM 7493 IN FISCAL YEAR 2010 TO 6427 THIS YEAR.

THAT’S A DROP OF 14.5%. IT IS CLEAR THAT PARENTS ARE SEEKING ALTERNATIVES TO THE ‘WOKE,’ DEI-INFESTED, LGBTQ-GROOMING WRSD FOR THEIR CHILDREN.

AS THE WRSD HEMORRHAGED STUDENTS IT KEPT ADDING EMPLOYEES AND ITS BUDGET SKYROCKETED FROM $81.3 MILLION IN FISCAL YEAR 2015 TO $129,515,225 THIS YEAR—A 59.3% INCREASE IN A MERE 11 YEARS.

THE WRSD NOW HAS 1 EMPLOYEE FOR EVERY 6.4 STUDENTS. THAT’S INSANE.

MEANWHILE, THE STUPID, TESTICLE-CHALLENGED SELECT BOARDS AND FINANCE COMMITTEES IN HOLDEN, PAXTON, PRINCETON, RUTLAND, AND STERLING SUPPORTED THE WRSD’S RUNAWAY HOSING OF DISTRICT TAXPAYERS AND THE PLUNDERING OF THEIR MUNICIPAL BUDGETS.

THEY HAVE ZERO CREDIBILITY–ON ANYTHING. REMEMBER THAT AT UPCOMING ANNUAL TOWN MEETINGS.

Stay tuned.
