Two Wiscasset School Committee seats are up for election June 14, but just one candidate is on the ballot, incumbent Michael Dunn. Chairman Steve Smith announced recently he would not seek re-election.

The second seat would be offered to a write-in with the most votes, but if the person declined, the seat would go on to a special election, Town Clerk Linda Perry said Tuesday. As of Tuesday, the newspaper had received no announcements from write-in candidates for school committee.

Dunn, a field manager for Bath heating company M.W. Sewall, said he doesn’t feel he’s finished his work on the committee yet and that he still has a vested interest in the school department as a parent. Daughter Vanessa Dunn will be a Wiscasset Middle High School junior next fall.

“I want to make sure things go the way I think they should go,” Michael Dunn said.

The committee works at balancing students’ needs with those of taxpayers, he said. Dunn said he would like to encourage more public participation and input in school business. “Everybody has the ability to direct the outcome of the school system, if they will show up and participate,” including at the committee’s monthly meetings, he said.

The next three-year term would be his first full term. He was elected in June 2014 to an unexpired one following Sharon Nichols’ resignation.

The committee has hired a series of superintendents who helped get the school department started, including interim ones and now a long-term one, Heather Wilmot, Dunn said about the committee’s accomplishments while he’s been on it. He also cited the consolidation from three schools into two. “Everybody’s at kind of a more steady situation now versus what we were when we started,” Dunn said.
