Help wanted: officials say KHS not meeting students' needs


KENNEBUNK — From its façade on Fletcher Street, Kennebunk High School appears to be a distinctive New England school.

But looking a little closer, administrators say paints a different picture, one that doesn't match the school's academic successes and goals.
"Our school looks so good from Fletcher Street. It's a beautiful building and we don't want to lose that façade. But the building doesn't support our programs. Our programs are outstanding and I think they would be even above that if we had a facility that meets our needs," said Principal Sue Cressey.

"I don't think the majority of the community understands how bad it is in here because it does look so good when they drive by. I think they would be appalled. Our community values its youth and when you walk through this building, you don't sense that."
