The Chebeague Island School Committee voted unanimously on Jan. 20 to enter executive session to discuss Superintendent Aaron Townsend's evaluation, citing 1 M.R.S.A. (statutory citation on the agenda). Erin Layng made the motion to enter executive session; Elizabeth Doughty seconded. The motion passed 4-0-0.
The committee later voted 4-0-0 to exit executive session; the transcript records no public details of the evaluation or contract discussions because those matters were discussed in executive session. The committee also scheduled a special meeting for Monday, Jan. 26, 2026, at 6 p.m. via Zoom for an executive session specifically to discuss the superintendent contract.
Because the discussion occurred in executive session, the public record in the meeting minutes contains only motions and votes to enter and exit the closed session and the scheduling of the Jan. 26 special meeting. The next regularly scheduled meeting is Tuesday, Feb. 3, 2026, at Chebeague Island School.
