Pat Hopkins, MSAD 11 Superintendent of Schools: Today, Thursday, September 7, school will be dismissed early due to the heat. While a few of our buildings have pockets of air conditioning, the majority of our classrooms do not and three days into this weather pattern, we have classrooms in the 90’s and buses that are even hotter. Gardiner Area High School and Gardiner Regional Middle School will be dismissed today at 11 am and the elementary schools will be dismissed at 12 noon. No pm pre-k. I apologize for the inconvenience.
