Meredith Nadeau Wrong for Hampton School District

Public School Superintendents Must Exhibit Qualities of Honesty and Integrity. Nadeau Lacks These Qualities!

Public School Superintendent Merideth Nadeau, through her actions and inactions, has proven she lacks the requisite moral character to serve in any position of trust in public education.

I have filed criminal allegations against Nadeau with both state and local officials where

I have alleged Nadeau committed perjury, falsified public documents, and obstructed justice. I stand by these allegations.

While serving as Superintendent in the Newmarket School District, Nadeau turned a blind eye to the unethical and illegal activities of the Newmarket School Board and school district attorney. In turning a blind eye to the crimes being committed, Nadeau became embroiled in the crimes themselves.

Nadeau aided and abetted these Newmarket criminals by redacting public records in order to cover the crimes of her former Newmarket co-workers and attorney. Making matters worse, Nadeau appeared in Superior Court where she committed perjury by making "an offer of proof" which she knew was a lie.

Nadeau was fully aware of the guilt and culpability of Newmarket school district officials and their attorney, Barbara Loughman, yet she said nothing. Instead, Nadeau chose to take the low road and aided and abetted these criminal activities.

Nadeau's silence has caused tremendous harm to me, my family, the reputation of Newmarkarket, cost Newmarket taxpayers in excess of one hundred thousand dollars in needless legal fees and brought shame upon herself and public education as a whole.


I am more than happy to meet with any school board in SAU 21 where I can provide them with evidence supporting my allegations against Nadeau.
