Luchini bill seeks to add minority history, genocide education to the curriculum
ELLSWORTH Three Ellsworth High School students stepped into the world of politics and legislation when they testified to the Joint Standing Committee on Education and Cultural Affairs on May 10. Senior Kylie Robidoux and juniors Ellie Kane and Paige Sawyer spoke in support of LD 187, a bill introduced by Sen. Louie Luchini (D-Hancock County) titled “An Act to Require Education About African-American History and the History of Genocide.” All three students are enrolled in a year-long elective course on the Holocaust and genocide taught by Heidi Omlor.
“It was actually very interesting, and I was overall surprised at how easy it was to be able to sign up and testify,” Kane said. “Now, when any bill comes out, I can just sign up and offer my opinion. Having it be easier than I expected, I would definitely do it again.”

“It’s completely different,” he says of first-team training. “Their mind works differently. When I’m in the Under-18s, people make mistakes. People take bad touches and you can kind of get away with taking a bad touch. There, you can’t get away with anything.
