(excerpt) The eight schools that comprise Maine School Administrative District 48 would be pared into four super schools if district officials adopt plans laid out by consultants during Tuesday's school board meeting.

Michael McCormick of the Dexter-based M.E. McCormick laid out a 20-year strategy designed to bring the district's facilities up to modern standards. The plan includes construction of a new comprehensive high school, retrofitting the current Nokomis Regional High School in Newport to serve as a middle school for grades 5 through 8, and adding classroom space to the Sebasticook Valley Middle School in Newport and Somerset Valley Middle School in Hartland to serve pre-kindergartners through fourth graders.
