[Schoolconsolidation] Schoolconsolidation Digest, Vol 3, Issue 3

Wed Aug 8 14:38:41 MDT 2007

To: Jack Reetz,

I would like to know how Saco/Dayton answered that question. At past 
meetings it was made very clear to me that Kennebunk, in order to meet the 
5% decrease in budget, would have to close schools. Not my words but words 
from the Kennebunk side. SO to me "unable to answer at this time" means we 
won't discuss which or when to close schools.

But I would really be interested how Saco/Dayton answered that question.
