There will be a 2 hour delay, no am pre-k and the Central Office will open at 9 am in MSAD11 today.The roads and sidewalks are all covered with ice, though crews are out treating roads. The temps are currently hovering around 30 degrees and the freezing rain is not expected to end until 7 am. If the temperatures do not warm up sufficiently it is possible that this delay could turn into a cancellation since our buses will have to be on the road before 8 am. If we need to shift the delay to a cancellation, another message will be sent out by 7:15 am.If you have to be out first thing this morning, please be safe out there.

Chewonki visited kindergarten today! As part of our "Animals & Habitats" unit, kindergarteners learned all about, "Fur, Feathers, & Feet," comparing the adaptations and body structures of birds and mammals. Thank you to our PTA for sponsoring today's visit!



Pat Hopkins MSAD 11 Superintendent of Schools: Due to today’s storm, the high school and middle school will be dismissed at 11:00 am and the elementary schools will be dismissed at 12:00 pm and there will be no afternoon Pre-K. The Central Office will close today at 2 pm and there will be no afternoon or evening activities. As of this moment, the forecast is calling for close to 6 inches in our area with the heavy snow beginning around noon and tapering off beginning around 8 pm. The roads are supposed to be slick, so I want to get buses and cars off the roads before they get too bad. Enjoy your day and stay safe.

Meet our new Librarian, Kaitlin Davis! Welcome to Helen Thompson School, Ms. Davis!


Wednesday, January 10, there will be a 2 hour delay and no morning Pre-Kindergarten. The change to rain will have our roads in decent condition by the time buses get on the road. The wind gusts are supposed to begin subsiding around 7 am. Should we begin seeing significant power outages, downed trees and/or serious flooding, this delay could change into a cancellation. With a 2 hour delay, our buses will be on the road around 8 am, so if the delay is changed to a cancellation, another notice will be sent out between 7 - 7:30 am. The Central Office will open at 9:30 am. Stay safe.
