Good afternoon. This is Pat Hopkins, MSAD 11 Superintendent of Schools. In light of the recent tragic event, its direct impact on many of our students and staff, and the need to prepare for the well-being of students and staff as they return to school, tomorrow, Monday, October 30, there will be a 2 hour delay to the start of school and no AM-Pre-K. I recognize the direct impact this will have on families, for which I am truly sorry. Please read this letter which provides greater detail: https://bit.ly/45LjYDH
