Cape Elizabeth

2 school board members face opponent

Two Cape Elizabeth School Board members face an opponent in Tuesday’s election who has significant experience in public education.

One-term incumbents Joanna Morrissey and Elizabeth Scifres are being challenged in a three-way race for two seats by Barbara Powers, recently retired superintendent of Falmouth schools and former teacher and principal in Cape schools. Morrissey is a project manager for 21 Reasons, a coalition that promotes drug-free youth development programs. Scifres is a tennis coach.

Candidates for two council seats are uncontested. Incumbent Katharine Ray is seeking re-election and Patricia Grennon is running for a seat currently held by David Sherman.
