Second graders are working on two-digit addition in math. Our new math program provides a variety of strategies and models that can be used for addition. Below you will find a video created by our Math Coach, Lindsey Bickford, about those strategies. If you would like to learn more about them to support your learners, click the link below. Mrs. Bickford demonstrates the strategies with a sample problem then explains why it is important when learning addition.

A Letter from our School Nurses

Happy holidays! We look forward to seeing you in January. Just in case the MSAD11 elementary schools need to switch to the red learning plan, we are sharing a new version for 2021. For now, each elementary school will return on January 4 in yellow/hybrid learning.: http://bit.ly/38xbUed
Due to today's weather, there will be no school, in-person or virtual, in MSAD11 today (12/17/2020). The Central Office will be closed. Enjoy the snow!
