- U.S. Sen. Angus King, I-Maine, helps Amaar Abdulrahman, 5, write his name on a computer at Androscoggin Head Start at the Webster School Community Center in Auburn on Wednesday. King had lunch with students and parents and talked with staff about federal cuts that removed 15 students from the program, Head Start Director Betsy Norcross Plourde said. The U.S. Senate has since restored the money. “The funds will allow us to bring children back,” Norcross Plourde said. “We know we have a need. We have a waiting list of 100 children in Androscoggin County.” Reading a children’s book at left are 4-year-old Willow Giasson, far left, site supervisor Mary Ratsavong and Alyssa Splude, 3.
