Religious institutions should get tax payer funding when they pay property taxes like the rest of us do, until then let the book club pay for the indoctrination centers not the tax payers.

Even our own Agency of Ed is against it.

"That proposal drew swift opposition from independent schools and school choice advocates. The Vermont Agency of Education also opposed it, Education Secretary Dan French said earlier this week.

“Unlike public schools, independent schools exist for a variety of purposes. Regulating them in a manner comparable to public schools would be inappropriate,” French wrote in testimony submitted to the Senate Committee on Education.

The proposed legislation, he said, “would significantly alter the independent school landscape in Vermont.”

It's not. The NEK is dead enough. People in here talking about defunding two of it's biggest employers and leaving three counties without a highschool.

So do what then build new high schools across a good portion of the NEK? Seize the independents by imminent domain and essentially nationalize them?

Becks actual point or so it seems is not arguing for religion just pointing out the collateral damage to thousands of other students in the state. Is it really worth it over a handful of religious students?

Why?

Try again I hate gaming.

Ill take things that never happened for $1000 please Alex!

I can only speak for my experience at St Mikes but it is a progressive and welcoming Vermont Catholic school. Please don’t make assumptions based solely on religious affiliation. I went to a traditional Catholic elementary school that was quite the opposite of St. Mikes.

People will shit on Rutland but honestly, it has a walkable downtown, it is close to great skiing, not expensive and really good schools. Community is really trying too.

To me, sky wizard schools shouldn't get any government help, nor should any school that is "independent."

There was a dude in my back lot with a weapon that was actively breaking into cars and the cops told me to put in a police report online.

Thank you so much. This is extremely helpful. You're a life saver

I’ve got all of my piercings done there it’s just so nice

You've never splurged on a niceity before? Since you are a redditor im sure you wouldn't bat an eye if someone spent 4k on a gaming rig. But suddenly if its a purse it deserves to be thrown in a river

I could have written this post myself. I’m in the same situation. The comment to work with a realtor is a good one, but you can’t just hire one and cover the vast geography of OP’s post. You need agents who know the specific area well, so you may need to talk to a few agents. Re: Stowe, you will need at least 1.5 mill in cash and willing to offer above asking price on homes already listed over 1 mill to be competitive.

Absolutely yes. I'm confident they'll run the story as you have pics of the perpetrator. The funniest response to your thread was about the man bun. Made me laugh.

Two months worth

Well I could do nothing and he can keep stealing form innocent people

I should call Wcax perhaps

Sunoko has the license plate! But waiting on police office to get supina - police is very overwhelmed with reports so it takes a long time, they said they have two months won’t of come online reports!

Rutland is the one place in Vt. that most feels like it could be in any other state. Our towns tend to feel distinctly "Vermonty", then you get to Rutland, and it feels like it could be right off the New Jersey Turnpike.

Catholic Schools are the most tolerant schools in the US. Hands down. The problem people have with Catholic schools that are more “faithful than others” is that they disagree with certain popular opinions. Which is fine because not every religion is the same. Not everyone (religious or not) has the same opinion! Also ok. I went to two Catholic schools (high school and college) loads of non Catholics and gays. No one was insulted except when it became fashionable. As a Catholic I love everyone. Just stop being gay is all. It’s destroying the country and society’s morals!!! Also it VT so you’ll get away with pretty much murder (abortion).
