The Edgecomb School Committee moved closer to filling all vacancies during a special Aug. 12 Zoom conference-only meeting. The committee approved Nancy Rose moving from her full-time sixth grade job to a part-time library, culture and library teaching job. Laurie Brown will succeed her as a full-time first-year probationary grade six teacher. Brown was a school interventionist last year. Heather Chouinard was hired as a first-year probationary art teacher. She will work one day per week. She succeeds Robin MacCready, who retired last spring. 

Other hires included Caroline Ivens, who will teach physical education, and Kaitlin Orne, who will serve as an educational technician I. The committee accepted bus driver Kelsey Knof’s resignation, which takes effect Aug. 8. 

The committee meets next at 5 p.m. Monday, Sept. 12 in the school cafeteria.
