At the October 9, 2025 Board of Education meeting First Selectman Jeff Maguire questioned the selection of the general contractor for the bathroom renovation. After the superintendent reported that the school's engineering firm, in a design-build arrangement, had recommended a general contractor with identified subcontractors, he pressed that the board had announced a general contractor with no cost figures attached: "if you're announcing the general contractor... What's the number? And you're all telling me we have no number." He argued that the town's prior capital projects had been managed by the town administrator, and that the boards should work together and use the expertise available.
