I am a concerned parent with children in the SAU 21 district, directly affected by the lack of intervention and care displayed by Superintendent Meredith Nadeau. Her complacency is undermining the quality of education and safety in our schools, particularly regarding serious bullying issues in the Seabrook middle school. 

Nadeau’s approach to important school issues simply exacerbates them. She neglects the fact that 53 acts of violence occurred in our school last year - an alarming number that cannot be overlooked or trivialized. Yet that’s exactly how she treats it: insignificant. This dismissal of the school's problems directly affects the children who merely seek a safe and conducive learning environment.

Furthermore, Nadeau’s promotion of policy infringement within the administrative faculty is a grave concern. This breeds an atmosphere of mistrust and inconsistency, negatively impacting the execution of school regulations intended to protect and guide our children. Her plans to dismiss suspensions, citing mental health benefits, and fail to build safer, more inclusive alternatives is alarming.

In an academic environment, we need leaders who uplift their staff, not belittle or dismiss them. We have witnessed great teachers, those brave enough to take a stand, being systematically sidelined under her leadership. This is detrimental to our school's communal knowledge and its ethos of standing up for what's right.

Our school requires a superintendent who prioritizes the well-being and education of its students. Our children deserve better. Join us in demanding the dismissal of Superintendent Meredith Nedeau from SAU 21. Sign this petition today.
