Closing of the Grove Street, Ale- wive, Pines and Landing schools are the questions presented in articles 2. 3, 4 and 5. There is no objection to closing the Grove Street building, but it is expected there will be opposition to discontinuing the three rural schools. It is argued by the opposition that the rural schools of Kennebunk have been, and are, efficient and that there has been no general demand by parents in these I districts to make a change. It i also argued by the opposition that sub-primary and first grade pupils who live four and five miles from the village would be compelled to start from home too early in the morning to arrive on scheduled time and that two long bus trips in the cold winter months would offset any benefits that might be derived from attending a consolidated school.

Those in favor of consolidation say that rural schools have a meager curriculum, poor buildings and too many classes for one teacher. Article 6 is to see if the town will vote to change the location of the high school and the seventh and eighth grades to the new six-year high school building on the road to West Kennebunk.
