Ellsworth: School consolidation plans in limbo

Bangor Daily News, May 14, 2008

(excerpt) Representatives of Union 96 in eastern Hancock County, after voting several months ago to consolidate with SAD 37 and Union 103 in Washington County, have changed course and decided to revisit consolidation talks with the Ellsworth school district.

Union 96 Superintendent William Webster said Wednesday that members of the regional planning committee have agreed to sit down again with their counterparts in Ellsworth to explore the options of consolidating to the west.

Ellsworth interim Superintendent Wayne Enman confirmed that RPC members in Ellsworth plan to meet with the Union 96 RPC on Monday, May 19.

"It seems they want to take a closer look at all options," Enman said. "So far, we haven’t found anyone that wants to dance with us, so we’re glad to hear they want to meet again."
