• Rindge leads Monadnock Region in students using EFAs (keenesentinel.com) — Families in Jaffrey and Rindge are using state-funded Education Freedom Accounts in significant numbers, with 320 local students approved compared to 1,001 in the Jaffrey-Rindge Cooperative School District last year. The program, recently expanded to all income levels, lets parents use public funds for nonpublic education costs, and local participation now represents a sizable share of the Monadnock Region's EFA use.
