Revised school start and end times

Re: Revised Start and End Times

As you know, the school district has a shortage of bus and van drivers. Transporting students with fewer buses and vans has caused numerous logistical problems including:
• Late student drop-off in the morning
• Late student drop-off after school
• Insufficient time between Secondary and Elementary bus/van trips

To improve this situation, we have decided to change the school start and end times as indicated in the table.

SchoolSchool Start TimeSchool End Time
High School 7:451:45
Middle School7:451:45
Dunn School9:053:05
Memorial School9:203:20
Russell School9:203:20

The new schedule begins Monday, October 4, 2021.

Families can go to the MSAD 15 Transportation website at https://msad15.org/transportation/ on Friday, October 1, 2021 to find updated transportation times.

In the next day or two, families will receive a letter from their child’s building principal clarifying any building-specific information.

Thank you for your patience and flexibility.

Despite our early challenges, the students and staff are all happy to be back to school and are getting off to a great start.
