Chebeague Island Hall Community Center
Thursday, May 20th
4:00-5:30p.m.

OPEN TO THE ISLAND PUBLIC

Declining island school enrollments are an ever-growing problem for island communities that could severely impact an island’s year-round viability.  


Please join the Island Institute Programs Committee Trustees and Staff for a discussion of strategies for keeping our island schools vibrant and sustainable centers of learning and community.

 Islanders from throughout the coast will share dynamic strategies they have tried to ensure the sustainability of their schools, such as Becoming Your Own School District, Attracting Mainland Students to Attend Island Schools, and Using Technology to Expand the Classroom.
