That’s quite a statement from Geoff Wood. The residents of Southwest Harbor and Tremont aren’t affluent or educated enough to understand the alleged benefits of an RSU model. With a condescending attitude like that, these two towns will never go for it. The bottom line is it won’t come to fruition.
You mean like Geoff Wood? A proficient weathervane of who’s affluent and educated. A shutdown is not likely a scenario that will happen. A huge concern is the lack of voting power in an RSU.

Union contracts versus Non Union contracts. The state has a ton of high School level academies that are independent from each other and most offer boarding as well. Specialize it in agriculture and aquaculture and I would think that kind of program would fill the Halls of the 350 person School once again.

What are the differences between an academy and what we have now. Please explain.
