SAGADAHOC: Durham
Voters re-elected Denise LaCasse-LaFlamme to the Board of Selectmen and gave tentative approval to a school consolidation proposal that would send local students to Freeport High School.
LaCasse-LaFlamme, who received 175 votes Friday in the three-way race for two openings, was returned to the board along with former Selectwoman Christine Charette, who received 159 votes. Catherine Curtis finished last.
Town Clerk Shannon Plourde said voters by a 168-123 margin approved two school referendums, which authorize the Durham School Committee to enter into a contract with Freeport to send students to Freeport High.
Most of Durham’s high school students currently attend Brunswick High School. Durham must finalize its school choice options at a townwide vote set for June 10.
