At the recent RSU 40 School Board meeting, heartfelt tributes were paid to board member Julie, who is stepping down after years of dedicated service. Board members expressed deep gratitude for her commitment, particularly during the challenging interim superintendent search.

One member praised Julie as one of the best board members, highlighting her organization, compassion, and willingness to tackle tough tasks. "A lot of things could not have happened without you being on this board," they said, emphasizing the significant impact she has had on the school district. The sentiment was echoed by others, who noted that her professionalism and teamwork with fellow board member Danny were instrumental in navigating complex issues.

In addition to honoring Julie, the meeting also acknowledged Steve for his years of service, noting improvements in budget management and overall district operations during his tenure.

Looking ahead, the board reminded members to consider committee assignments as they prepare for the reorganization meeting scheduled for July 3. The next Region 8 board meeting is set for June 25 at 6 AM. The meeting concluded with a strong sense of appreciation for the contributions of both Julie and Steve, marking a significant moment of transition for the board.
