Kennebec Valley Consolidated Schools

Kennebec Valley Consolidated Schools or Alternative Organizational Structure 92 (AOS 92) was a school district with the superintendent based in Waterville, Maine and with another office in Winslow, Maine. The district served Waterville, Winslow, and Vassalboro.[1]

The district has about 3,000 students in that school department. Eric L. Haley is the superintendent. Peter A. Thiboutot was the final Assistant Superintendent.

History

The district was combined in 2009 as per state law required it. The district was established as part of the 2007 State of Maine School Administrative Reorganization law.[1]

AOS 92 communities were two former school districts. Waterville Schools were their own independent school department, and Winslow and Vassalboro were part of School Union 52, along with China, which went to RSU 18 when the new state law came in 2009.

On March 13th, 2018, Waterville, Winslow, and Vassalboro residents voted to dissolve AOS 92 by 253 votes. Each town will become their own independent school department on June 30, 2018. The votes were 183-58 in Waterville, 122-62 in Winslow, and 81-13 in Vassalboro; a snowstorm caused the turnout to be lower.[2] On July 1, 2018 the district ceased to exist.[1]
