§ 2535. Town scholarships
A town, at any legal meeting of the voters thereof, may appropriate from its general funds, money to pay all or part of the tuition and incidental expenses of one or more students from the town in any institution of higher learning. When a town makes such an appropriation, a committee consisting of the superintendent of the district wherein the town is located, the chairman of the board of school directors, the chairman of the prudential committee, if any, in such town and the principals of each high school and academy in such town, or if there is not a high school or academy therein, the principal of the high school usually attended by the students thereof shall constitute a board of selection. On or before August 1 following such appropriation, the board shall designate, on the basis of scholarship and need, the number of students authorized by such appropriation. The choice of the institution shall be made by the respective students so designated. (Amended 1975, No. 100, § 2.)
