Drummond funding drops as student count declines
Drummond Public Schools will be receiving less money because they have less kids.
The average of a key metric used in funding Drummond Public Schools districts has been lowered since student enrollment has decreased.
The Philipsburg Mail also learned that a retaining wall was replaced, and a legal dispute regarding the schools’ new gym’s foyer is ongoing. The Schools also received a payment of protested taxes from an energy company.
Restauranteur wants to caretake
Near Mile Marker 49, between Philipsburg to Drummond on Highway 1, you will find yourself surrounded by wood-furnished floors and tables and giant pines visible through glass walls. You will find yourself experiencing an authentic mountain retreat at Boulder Creek Lodge.
It’s Sara Powers’ doing. After 18 years of seeing Prescott, Ariz. grow too quickly, Powers, a native of Claremont, Calif., and her husband Keith found themselves in Granite County for good in June 2010. They fell in love with the area after having previously purchased a cabin near Georgetown Lake. Just nine months after starting Forest Edge Inn, her bed and breakfast near the lake, Powers invested in the Boulder Creek location with help from real estate agent Debbie Dauenhauer Hess.
“What do they say, Janet? Ninety percent of small businesses go out in the first three years?” she asked, turning to one of two Lodge assistants. “We’re out of that. This will be a wonderful year of growth.”
