## History

[edit]

Although it is unknown when the school district started, it is generally believed to have been in existence by the early 1900s.

### 2001 and 2003 Overrides Fail

[edit]

In 2001, a Proposition 2+1⁄2 override failed to pass. In addition to teacher cuts across the system and reductions in each school's budget, the most significant losses were to the schools' award-winning music program; elementary school feeder programs were cut completely.[3] In 2002 the district faced another budget shortfall and the school committee voted to implement fees for bus transportation, music programs and sports programs. A 2003 override was attempted to remove these fees and prevent further staff lay-offs.[4] The override failed and the fees remained. The loss of feeder music programs in 2001 and the subsequent fees for participation in the high school music program decimated the award-winning Barnstable High School Marching Band.
