Residents raise concerns about anonymous Facebook pages and alleged harassment at RSU 60 meetings
Summary
Multiple speakers raised worries about anonymous Facebook pages (one named 'Noble Meets Alliance') that may be spreading harassment and misinformation; board members urged civility and said such pages are not affiliated with the district.
During public comment the board heard concerns about a locally run Facebook page called 'Noble Meets Alliance' and other anonymous social media accounts that speakers said have posted material the commenters described as harassment.
An unidentified participant said they had searched for information about the page’s organizers and said the posts had caused severe emotional distress, including a short period of detention and being prevented from returning to their property (details were not provided). "I woke up to the most horrible day ... It’s destroyed my entire life," the speaker said. The participant asked whether the page is a registered nonprofit and whether its administrators are district employees.
Board member Lauren urged the public to "please be kind," saying anonymous pages have caused emotional harm and that the district’s community should model respectful discourse. Other board members noted the pages are not affiliated with the school district and recommended that residents report threats or harassment to appropriate authorities rather than assume an official connection.
No formal action was taken during the meeting; board members said they would continue to encourage civil engagement and reiterated that anonymous social pages do not represent the district.
