“In order to inform the entire Barrington 220 community about the referendum question on the April 2, 2019 general election ballot, the Board of Education is holding 3 information sessions. All community members are encouraged to attend and ask questions. The agenda at all meetings will be the same.
- Saturday, Feb. 23: 9am at Barrington High School (616 West Main Street, Barrington)
- Monday, March 4: 9:30am at BMS-Prairie (40 East Dundee Road, Barrington)
- Wednesday, March 6: 7pm at BMS-Station (215 South Eastern Avenue, Barrington)
In addition, you can also visit the new referendum section of the Barrington 220 website. Here you will find answers to frequently asked questions, estimates on how the referendum may impact your taxes and specific plans for each Barrington 220 school.”
The referendum will not pass (again as others). Who’s going to spend upwards of 200M when the school board president is retiring, and his full time job managing partner of an equity firm that could profit from it???
Voters should take a pass on this referendum and vote again in the fall when the new board president is vetted and more people have time to evaluate our options.
