Dear Parent/Guardians and Staff: MSAD11 has been informed by PowerSchool, the platform we use to manage student information, of a recent cybersecurity incident involving unauthorized access to customer data stored on their servers. Note - this incident occurred on PowerSchool’s systems and did not involve any servers or systems under the control of our school district. Many school districts throughout the United States have been affected. PowerSchool has assured us that the breach has been contained and that they are taking all necessary steps to secure their systems and prevent future incidents. While no operational disruptions have occurred, it is possible that certain student, staff, and family information was accessed. We are working closely with PowerSchool to understand the scope of the incident and will provide updates as more information becomes available. Please be assured that the safety and privacy of all our data remain our highest priority. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to our office at 207.582.5346 ext. 1224. Thank you for your understanding and continued support.

Good afternoon. I am contacting you to update you on the status of this morning’s threat against Gardiner Area High School. The person who made the threat has been identified and has been arrested for terrorizing. Thank you to all of the law enforcement officers who investigated this threat and swiftly took action to ensure the safety of our students and staff.
Since there is no on-going threat, the Gardiner Area High School is reopened. Staff may re-enter the building and athletic practices and events may resume.
I hope you all have a very happy holiday season.
Pat Hopkins, MSAD11 Superintendent of Schools
Good morning, this is Pat Hopkins, MSAD 11 Superintendent of Schools. Out of an abundance of caution the Gardiner Area High School only will be closed today due to a threat against the school. The rest of the schools in MSAD 11 will remain open. My apologies for the short notice. High school students who are currently on the bus will be able to ride their bus back home.
BusRight is almost here!
If you are the parent of a bus rider, you will soon be able to create an account and view your student’s bus route, know the real-time ETA to their bus stop, set up notifications to receive alerts, and more!
We’re working hard behind the scenes to make sure our routes, stops, and contact information are accurate. On January 2nd, our drivers will begin testing the system to make sure the launch goes smoothly. As soon as BusRight is ready to roll out to the community, we’ll send you an email that walks you through how to create an account.
Please be sure that your student’s school has a valid email address on file for you!

There will be a 2 hour delay to the start of school in MSAD11 today, no AM pre-k, and the Central Office will open at 9 am. The roads are very icy this morning. If road conditions do not improve by 7:00 am, it will be necessary to make today a remote day. Should that happen, you will receive another message around 7:15 am. Thank you, drive safe and enjoy your day.
Good morning again. Unfortunately, the temperature is still too low to make it safe to drive or walk to school. The roads and walkways are very icy, and because it’s so cold, the salt isn’t melting the ice. Because of this, today will be a remote learning day in MSAD11. Your child’s teacher and principal have already shared details about remote learning. If you have any questions, please email your child’s teacher or principal. The Central Office will open at noon today.
There will be a 2 hour delay to the start of school in MSAD11 today, no AM pre-k, and the Central Office will open at 9 am. Drive safe and enjoy your day.
