As residents of Oxford, we can be proud to live in a community where everyone has the opportunity to help make decisions that affect us all. In Oxford we know that delivering an excellent education to our children enhances our town's prosperity. Excellent schools attract homebuyers, increase property values and help solidify a tax base in which local businesses can thrive. Like every school district in CT, we are now faced with a booming student population requiring more seats than are available under our current system. Changing times create new problems.
New problems require new answers.
New answers require new vision. New vision requires patience, collaboration, research and validation. No fewer than 7 town sponsored committees have studied various ways to complete our educational system over the past 5 years. We ask that you, too, support this effort by voting yes on June 5th.
