This is a reminder that the Ludlow Mount Holly School Board meeting is tomorrow (Monday, December 22) from 6:00–8:00 p.m. at Mount Holly School and via Zoom. We will be discussing possible ways to bring the school budget back below the state-allowed threshold.

Possible considerations that may be discussed include:

Closing one of the elementary schools
Reconfiguring grade levels across buildings, such as:
- One school serving PreK–2 and the other Grades 3–6
- One school serving PreK–4 and the other Grades 5–7 or 8

We hope you can join us—your questions and input matter as we work through these options together.

THANK YOU:

The Museum Board sends a hearty thank you for the generosity of the many area merchants, local talented artisans and to Community members who gave lovely items for the Festival of Lights. It was a successful event! We are grateful also for the wonderful support from our town Community coming to share in the spirit of the evening! Your presence and generosity makes for a successful event, and in turn the Museum continues to enrich Mount Holly living! We all are in this together.

FUNDRAISER and REMINDER:

As the year closes we want to remind you there is still time to contribute to the Blacksmith Fundraising Project, repairing and preserving the Blacksmith Shop. We are 25% on our way to completing the final goal of $150,000.00. The restoration work will begin next Spring once the ground is thawed.

The Museum is a 501c3 non-profit organization. Contributions qualify for a tax deduction. Another method for a tax free donation is through a qualified charitable distribution from your IRA.

Please keep the Blacksmith Fundraiser in your sights as you complete your end of year giving!

Happy Holidays and a healthy New Year!
