November 15, 2022 Dear RSU 67 staff, students, and families, The current weather forecast for our region is a harsh reminder that winter is on its way. For the past 48 hours, we have been monitoring a developing storm to our south that will likely bring the region its first plowable snow tomorrow. While it is too early to determine if the school will be delayed or canceled at this time, please stay tuned tomorrow morning for any potential updates. If school is delayed or canceled, the announcement will be broadcast on media channels, posted on the district's Facebook page and website, and via phone call, text, and/or email. The decision to delay or cancel is generally made by 5 am and messaging will begin immediately after the decision is made. As winter weather arrives, please be safe and always allow yourself extra time to get to work or school when necessary. Sincerely, Paul Austin, Superintendent RSU 67

Dear RSU 67 Families, The purpose of this communication is to inform you of some important transportation changes that are necessary for Monday, October 3 through Thursday, October 6. Due to driver illnesses, we had to consolidate some bus routes in order to ensure that all children have transportation. We anticipate this change will only last this week. We will update you when we have more information. If you can transport your own child to school this week, it would be very helpful. However, we will do all we can to ensure that every child has transportation. We understand that changes are not easy and may be disruptive. We sincerely appreciate your patience as we make these adjustments. Bus #2 - All students will be picked up approximately 1 hour later in the morning and dropped off approximately 1 hour later in the afternoon. Bus #4 - All students will be picked up approximately 1 hour later in the morning and dropped off approximately 1 hour later in the afternoon. Bus #8- Students who live on Boyd Street, Depot Street, Main Street, and Winn Road will be picked up approximately 30 minutes earlier in the morning and students who live on the Back Settlement Road and Webb Hill will be picked up approximately 15 minutes earlier. Afternoon drop off should remain the same. Bus #13 - Students from Burlington into Lincoln will be picked up approximately 30 minutes earlier. Afternoon drop off should remain the same. Again, we sincerely appreciate your patience and anticipate a return to more normal operations on Tuesday. October 11. Thank you Dr. Paul Austin, Superintendent

Thirty-one juniors and seniors from MA participated in a college fair at UMaine today with Ms. Grant and Mr. Davis. Check out the news section for more information.

Both the Lincoln Fire Department and the Dead River Company have assessed the situation at Mattanawcook Junior High and have determined there is no gas leak. All students and staff have returned to a regular school day and schedule within the building.

This afternoon a staff member reported of a concern about a gas appliance in the kitchen at Mattanawcook Junior High School. Following our emergency response plan, we have evacuated the students and staff to a safe location and a gas technician is on site to evaluate the situation. All students and staff are safe. We expect this to resolve quickly. We will update you once more information is available.
