Science curriculum on SAD 59 agenda

MADISON -- School board directors are slated to discuss the adoption of a science curriculum beginning at 7 p.m. Monday at the administrative building on Weston Avenue.
School Administrative District 59 directors declined to take action on the district's science curriculum at their May meeting, Superintendent Michael Gallagher said at the time.
At their April 29 meeting, they tabled consideration of a revised curriculum that could include changes in how evolution is taught.
Board member Matthew Linkletter of Athens earlier this year suggested that the district remove evolution from its science curriculum. Linkletter said that evolution is not proven, and thus should not be taught as science.
Gallagher said in May that the board has no specific timetable regarding discussion or a vote on a revised curriculum.
He could not be reached Friday for details of Monday's meeting.
