Deer Isle-Stonington CSD Archive
Deer Isle-Stonington Consolidated School is facing a number of challenges. The high school is still rebounding from its 2010 designation as a low-performing school, costs continue to rise while enrollment drops, alternative administrative structures are being considered, teacher contract negotiations are ongoing and major questions about the future of the school system are hashed out monthly in board meetings and in strategic planning sessions. Here you can find Island Ad-Vantages coverage of the ongoing issues and challenges facing the CSD.
