Summary
The Winthrop School Board unanimously approved a high‑school overnight outings trip for May 15–17, 2026 and ratified a contract with the Winthrop Administrators Association covering July 1, 2026–July 30, 2029; the board also entered executive session during the meeting.
The Winthrop School Board took three formal actions at Monday’s meeting: it approved a high‑school outings club overnight field trip, entered an executive session, and ratified a multi‑year agreement with district administrators.
The board voted unanimously to approve a May 15–17, 2026 Adventurebound Whitewater overnight trip for the high‑school outings club after a presentation by Kristen Kaiser, the high‑school art teacher and outdoor adviser, who said the trip would include rafting, hiking and ropes‑course activities and that she would accompany up to nine students and serve as a whitewater guide.
Later, the board voted to enter executive session "pursuant to one MRSA 4056D" at 6:56 p.m. and reconvened at 7:10 p.m. After returning, the board moved, seconded and unanimously ratified an agreement between the Winthrop School Board and the Winthrop Administrators Association (MEA, NEA) covering July 1, 2026 through July 30, 2029.
