Frontier Regional School officials are facing growing backlash after voting not to move a memorial plaque for fallen soldier and former South Deerfield resident Gregory Belanger to the new baseball scoreboard. Several residents and business owners are urging the committee to reconsider, and the South Deerfield Polish American Citizens’ Club is now weighing whether to stop future donations to Frontier sports and scholarships. School officials say the vote raised broader questions about how the district handles existing memorials.
