An unusual public hearing on the fate of a Wiscasset principal scheduled for Tuesday has been postponed.
Wiscasset Middle High School Principal Gina Stevens faces possible firing after she was accused of several transgressions, including improperly authorizing the installation of a hidden camera, indefinitely removing a student against policy, and mistreating students and staff. Stevens has denied any wrongdoing.
Stevens was placed on leave and in a rare move requested the process be made public. The School Committee planned to hold an open dismissal hearing Tuesday but it was postponed due to a scheduling conflict with Stevens’ attorney, according to Superintendent Kim Andersson. Stevens’ lawyer, Gregg Frame, later refuted the claim that the delay was due to his schedule. A new date for the hearing has not yet been set.
