Looks like the grass roots effort to save the Maine West fencing program is having positive results. Posted on Facebook today:
Maine District 207 Administration today posted that they recommend retaining Maine West’s fencing program be retained as a varsity sport.
This is a HUGE step in the right direction!!! Thank you Administration for listening to our appeal! Although the Administration has said this, it is still ultimately up to the Board who will vote on the final decision Monday night, 7:00 At Maine South High School.
I will be posting the address of Maine South High School on Save Maine West Fencing page, we would really appreciate it if you could come! Please keep the phone calls, emails, and letters coming to the board. Below you will see the link to the statement that Maine 207 put out today saying that they support Maine West fencing as a varsity sport. Also you will see that a link will be given for you to contact the board of education.
More news after the board meeting Monday night.
