They want to consolidate the school districts in Maine, from 200-something down to 80. This includes consolidating the schools themselves, so my itty-bitty school would close, and we would all go to a huge school in another town. They're saying that if any schools refuse to do so, they won't suspend payment completely ('cause that would be ILLEGAL), but those schools won't get as much funding as the schools that cooperate.
It's extortion. stare They're basically saying, "Obey us, or we won't give you what you need."
We're not that poor, actually. In fact, recently, someone left us $1,000,000 for a scholarship fund, which we have in a bank. We take the intrest off of it and give it out in numerous scholarships, but only if you are a resident of the town and have always (or at least mostly) been a resident of the town. My sister got $3300 off of it, and so did about ten others.
