NORWICH – Interim Superintendent Diana Bowers has been working with business managers to balance the Norwich school budget and bring the district back in the black.

During Wednesday night’s school board meeting, Bowers announced the school expects to start receiving more state aid after correcting a number of issues identified in a recent state report. Those fixes should help increase the amount of aid the school is eligible for.

The Resident Weighted Average Daily Attendance (RWADA) report looks at how many students are in attendance of the school district and the poverty level of the area, as well as the financial circumstances surrounding each student.
