Reynolds appointed
to School Committee

Jaci Reynolds has been appointed to fill the slot left open by the recent resignation of longtime School Committee member Stewart McCallister.

Gorham Superintendent Heather Perry announced that Reynolds will serve until the next municipal election in June 2025.

“Jaci Reynolds is new to the community of Gorham but has served many years on a school board in her previous home,” Perry wrote in a blog post. “She served on the school board in Brattleboro, Vermont, for several years, including navigating COVID-19 and selecting and onboarding a new superintendent.”

While on the board, she served on the Finance Committee. “Following her time on the board, she served on the Independent Budget Review Committee, which assessed the school and town budgets and presented them to the public,” Perry said.

Reynolds recently moved to Gorham and has two children in elementary school.
