The Trustees, shall, unless otherwise directed by a vote of the District at any annual meeting thereof, allow and make provision for the attendance and instruction of students from other parts or portions of the Town of Barton or from other towns in the graded school with equal advantages of resident students, at rates of tuition corresponding as nearly as may be to the usual rates for the same instruction in schools of like character in the State.
