Dear Editor:

Here in Wiscasset we know our public school is our most important institution. Educating our children is a great responsibility and cannot be taken lightly.

Wiscasset residents, please attend our Budget Validation meeting on Tuesday, April 29 at 6 p.m. in the Wiscasset Middle High School gymnasium to vote to pass our budget for next year. The details of the proposed budget are available at the Wiscasset Schools Department website. There is only a modest increase to the local contribution, let’s pay it forward like previous generations did for us.

Jason Putnam

Wiscasset School Committee Chair
