The New Fairfield Board of Education has approved a proposed budget for the coming fiscal year. The $44.3 million is a 3.27 percent increase over the current year. It includes new debt service for the two school building projects and an additional physical education teacher. The proposal eliminates a proposed full-time security director position, funding to update the district's website, and vaping sensors. The New Fairfield Board of Finance will next go through the budget and hold a public hearing next month.
