Shanna Wheelock’s paints the words, feelings, and situation

Shannon Wheelock

Some of you might be following what has been happening with Lubec High School. With very low enrollment the school voted to put the question to the taxpayers. Keep the school open or close it down? And let students choose where they’d like to attend next year. The vote took place last Wednesday and the town voted 260 to 230 to close Lubec High School.

You can read about some of the emotions Shanna and others were feeling by going to her blog called The Easternmost Potter in the United States. It is lovely to read the description and imagine what it looked and felt like. You’ll find the parallel with the weather and Bear and Owl…. Please join me in wishing Shanna the best of luck as her path takes a different direction.

  1. Good luck, Shanna! Look upon this as a new chapter with endless possibilities. Stay positive!


  2. Such a close vote! It must have cut very deep. I hope the community will heal. Don’t give up Shanna – stay creative!
