WSESU elects new board members including Anne Sheehan and Kim Price

The Windham Southeast Unified Union School District held a significant meeting on March 11, 2025, focusing on the reorganization of its board members, a process that directly impacts local governance and educational oversight. The meeting was marked by nominations and voting for representatives from various towns within the district, highlighting the collaborative efforts of community members to ensure effective leadership.

The first order of business was the nomination of board members for the Windham Southeast Supervisory Union (WSESU). Anne Sheehan and Ruby McAdoo were nominated to represent Putney, with Sheehan ultimately receiving the majority of votes. This decision reflects a commitment to continuity and shared responsibilities among board members, as noted by Sheehan's acknowledgment of her collaborative discussions with fellow board member Ruby.

In addition to Putney, Brian Riemer was nominated and accepted as the representative for Guilford, while Deborah Stanford was chosen to represent Dummerston. The meeting also saw nominations for Brattleboro, where Kim Price and Tim Maciel were both put forward. After a thorough voting process, Kim Price emerged as the selected representative for Brattleboro.

These nominations are crucial as they shape the leadership structure of the supervisory union, which oversees educational policies and initiatives across the district. The collaborative spirit demonstrated during the meeting underscores the importance of community involvement in local governance, ensuring that diverse voices are heard in decision-making processes.

As the newly elected representatives prepare to take on their roles, the community can look forward to their contributions in addressing educational needs and fostering a supportive environment for students across the Windham Southeast School District. The next WSESU meeting is scheduled for March 19, where further discussions and planning will continue to unfold.
