Extractions: Home Our History Contact Information Recreation ... Business Directory [ Maine Central Institute ] Warsaw Middle School Vickery School Manson Park School Maine Central Institute , founded in 1866 as a preparatory school for Bates College, is one of Pittsfield's most unique and well-known assets. MCI is one of the "Big 10" private secondary schools in Maine that still serves the public school population as well. The school is located on a 23-acre campus and conducts its programs within fourteen buildings. Of these, 4 are academic, 3 are residential dormitories, 3 are houses, and 2 are gymnasiums. One of the academic buildings, Founders Hall, is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and provides a stately and proud center for the campus, situated behind an attractive green facing South Main Street. MCI has always had a boarding population, with a high of 240 residential students in the 1960's. At that time and until the early 1990's, most boarders were post-graduate athletes preparing for college. During much of the school's history, it has served as the public high school. Boarding students are matched with a local host family, and warm and lasting relationships have been forged through these opportunities. In addition to the SAD#53 and boarding students, fourteen private tuition day students attended MCI during 1996-97.

MCI Seeks Ways To Reduce Dropout Rate Despite the fact that nearly all maine schools go on vacation Feb We do know fromour research that other northern New England boarding schools have experienced http://www.centralmaine.com/news/stories/030204sad53_ms.shtml
Extractions: Head of School Douglas C. Cummings told School Administrative District 53 directors Monday night that 21 students left MCI in a one-year period ending last Sept. 30. Cummings said he is working with Deb Hannigan, SAD 53 director of special education, in studying an alternative-education program. "We're at it," Cummings said. "There's a lot of work to be done there and a lot of energy that goes into the at-risk youngster." Cummings addressed the dropout issue during MCI's winter Board of Trustees meeting Saturday. In his "state of school report," Cummings wrote that MCI is "digging deeper" into the cause of youngsters dropping out. "Generally they are external issues, such as disintegration of the family unit, use and abuse of alcohol and drugs, and issues relating to criminal activity," Cummings wrote.

NAIS PILOTs And SILOTs have become especially common in particular parts of the countrythe East Coastfrom maine to Virginia Being a boarding schools or a boarding/day combination. http://www.nais.org/govt/PISI/genrisk.stm
Extractions: Local governments are especially dependent on property taxation Local governments are divided into many small units Other factors constrain local revenue State and local governments offer tax incentives to businesses to relocate ... Local governments already receive PILOTS from federal or state government In addition to the general risk factors just outlined, there are several specific factors that can increase the risk of being approached for a PILOT or SILOT. These factors are: Being a boarding schools or a boarding/day combination Needing zoning waivers, construction permits, or similar official approvals Launching a capital campaign Local governments are especially dependent on property taxation All local governments rely on property taxes as an important source of revenue. However, dependence is heavier in some parts of the country than in others. Thus, property taxes are 98 percent of local revenue in New England, but only 71 percent in the far west. The pressure for revenue from tax-exempt property is generally greater where local governments must rely on property taxes and lack access to income or sales tax revenue. Local governments are divided into many small units Another risk factor is location in a state where local government is divided into many small units, each of which has a correspondingly small tax base. Older east coast states with their proliferation of towns, townships, and school districts face serious problems in spreading the cost of their services. Because the tax base is small to begin with, the loss of tax revenue from exempt property has a bigger impact than in these states than in states where the primary units of local government are cities and counties.
