Kennebunkport to explore withdrawal from RSU 21



RSU Board discusses school renovations

Now that Arundel residents have voted to stay with RSU 21, the district is faced with moving ahead with both a new cost sharing proposal and renovations to three of the district's schools. That's what was discussed at a RSU 21 Board of Directors workshop meeting Monday, Nov. 19. But despite moving ahead with plans, the district has a new issue looming on the horizon, Director Tim Hussey told the board.

"I was told a petition was submitted with enough signatures for Kennebunkport to start the withdrawal process," Hussey said.

Hussey said that his information was "second-hand or third-hand," but Superintendent Andrew Dolloff confirmed that Kennebunkport collected signatures on Election Day and will begin investigating the withdrawal process.

"I think withdrawal would be a detriment to the students of Kennebunkport," he said.
