If Wiscasset voters agree in June, selectmen will have a committee explore options for the school department’s future. The warrant article arose from two split votes on Zoom Tuesday night, March 16.
Selectmen rejected 3-2 a proposed question Town Manager Dennis Simmons offered. Its scope aligned with residents Judith Colby and William Maloney’s proposal that started this year’s talks. Simmons’ proposed question read: “Shall the Town authorize the Selectmen to form an ad hoc committee to study the financial impact of the Wiscasset School Department discontinuing to offer grades 9-12 and offer those students tuition at a local school of their choice.”
