Skowhegan-area school board right to retire nickname

It could not have been an easy decision, but the Skowhegan-area school board did the right thing Thursday night.

Facing a community that is bitterly split over the issue, the School Administrative District 54 board voted 14-9 to “respectfully retire” Skowhegan Area High School’s Indian nickname, reversing an 11-9 decision in favor of keeping the mascot made four years ago.
