Up to the Voters to Decide Today on $6.8 Mil Tax Increase: BREAKING -- Boston 25 Reports Students to Walkout in Support of Override

The Question of the Day was:

Shall the town of Franklin be allowed to assess an additional 6.8 million dollars in real estate AND personal property  taxes for the purposes of the operating budget for which monies from this assessment will be used for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2024?

Now the question of the day is what consequences high school students will face for walking out of class in support of the override (an event predicted to start early this morning by Boston 25)?

Voting at the high school gymnasium opens at 6 AM and continues until 8 pm.
