The Sherman Board of Selectmen has held a special meeting about funding for the Sherman School’s playgrounds.  The Selectmen agreed to an expenditure of up to $300,000 to repair and replace the playgrounds.  The Board of Ed has proposed demolishing and replacing the Sherman School’s lower playground and making repairs to its pirate ship playground.  That board reduced costs by about $100,000.  School officials have called the current equipment a safety issue. Donations from community members have offset costs by about $25,000.  A date for the town meeting has not yet been set.
