It may be time for an intervention.
For
those of you not following the ongoing struggle to bring together three
towns into one school district named RSU 21, let's just say things have
gone from not-so-great to a lot worse in recent days.
In fact, all three of the towns that make up
RSU 21 have, at some point in the last year, looked into the process for
leaving it. In just the last two weeks, 378 Arundel voters signed and
turned in a petition to the town showing their support for the town's
withdrawal from the RSU. Town officials are now exploring the next steps
necessary for moving the issue to a public vote.
Just
days later, the Kennebunkport Board of Selectmen, seemingly frustrated
both by the RSU Board of Directors' vote to reopen the cost-sharing
discussion and by its decision to scale back on repairs at Consolidated
School, voted to look into the process of withdrawal as well.
