Andrew Lane, shown here speaking at the Strafford Town Meeting in 2020, recently announced his resignation as director of the Sharon Academy middle school. (Herald File / Tim Calabro) Andrew Lane, who has served as director of The Sharon Academy’s middle school for the past decade, resigned this week, citing health and personal reasons. Lane announced his departure in a letter to the school community, saying the decision was necessary to protect his health after 25 years at the school. “Unfortunately, this is necessary for me to protect my health as I don’t seem to know how to perform this role at anything less than full speed ahead and it is clear that this cannot continue,” Lane wrote. He asked for privacy for himself and his family regarding the circumstances of his departure. Head of School Mary Newman said the school has taken steps to support students and teachers following Lane’s resignation and is making plans to hire an interim middle school director.

The sign says twelve items and you have fourteen. Is the express lane still yours?

The regular checkout lines are long and the express lane is empty. You count fourteen small items, two over the posted limit. A shopper approaches behind you carrying a single carton of milk as the cashier waves you forward.

Are small rules optional when enforcing them would seem fussier than breaking them?
