As a result of emergency personnel tending to an auto fire in front of the ice cream shop in Pittston that is slowing traffic, students who ride bus 915 and 958 may arrive home a little later than usual for Pittston and Randolph students.

Consolidated Communications has resolved the problem on the telephone lines coming into the schools in MSAD11, and calls are coming through. Please feel free to call our schools if you need assistance.
We appreciate your understanding and patience today.

The provider of our telephone lines, Consolidated Communications, has a wide spread outage this morning in our area.
At this time, schools can use the telephone system to make calls, but cannot receive calls. Currently, Gardiner Area High School is the only school not experiencing this issue.
We ask that you use email to contact us today if possible. If you have an emergency and need to get in touch with someone in our schools, please call Martha Allen at the Central Office at (207) 582-5346 ext. 1211.
