CONWAY — What should we do with our current schools? That will be one of the first questions the Conway School Board’s newly reactivated ad-hoc facilities use committee members will ponder when they are scheduled to meet in the Professional Development Center at the SAU 9 Office on Thursday, March 31, from 3:30-4:30 p.m.
School board members Joe Mosca, Jessica Whitelaw and Michelle Capozzoli (Joe Lentini is an alternate) have agreed to serve on the committee, which will also include budget committee members Frank Jost and Bill Marvel, along with Superintendent Kevin Richard, Assistant Superintendent Kadie Wilson and SAU 9 Director of Administrative Services Jim Hill and two principals — Aimee Frechette of Pine Tree Elementary School in Center Conway and Rick Biche of Kennett Middle School.
Do not close a school due to declining enrollments now. Wait a few more years and enrollments do fluctuate. In the future you may create overcrowding in a school and then additions will have to be made at a large cost. Additionally, you will cause an increased transportation cost for the district and parents who wish to drive their student(s) to school.
Keep it Clean. Please avoid obscene, vulgar, lewd,
racist or sexually-oriented language. PLEASE TURN OFF YOUR CAPS LOCK. Don't Threaten. Threats of harming another

or anything. Be Nice. No racism, sexism or any sort of -ism
