I need 80 bricks for a project at school. They need to be free of cement on the sides. My students are studying the Stone Age and have a challenge to build and recreate some prehistoric structures. Does anyone have some laying around that they are willing to part with?
Thanks, Karen McCormick
Due to circumstances beyond our control, we will be conducting a three bus run this morning. This will affect the pick up times of students who ride Mr. Cote's bus only. This is the bus run that includes Hilton and Heath Road, East River Road, Headtide Road and the lower end of route 194.
Pick up for these students will begin after the other buses do their run and will start around 7:50am. There will be two buses picking up students on Mr. Cote's run so the wait time will not be long. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause to the people on Mr. Cote's bus run and you are welcome to slef transport your students to school. You may dropnoff as early as 7:30am if need be.
Thank you for you cooperation and understanding.
Picture retakes will be on Friday, December 9th.

Maine Harvest Lunch for RSU 12 is coming up THIS Thursday the 22nd! It's a big day for local foods in our cafeterias. We will feature a local Maine Fish sandwich, roasted vegetables and an incredible Maine peach! The Maine Harvest Lunch promotes fresh, local food in school cafeterias and teaches our children and youth where food comes from – including local farms, gardens and greenhouses.
The Maine Harvest Lunch began in 2005 as a statewide event and 81% of Maine schools feature local foods during this weeklong celebration.
Students will be sent home with an Economic Status form either today or tomorrow. It is very important that these forms get filled out and returned to the office.
We need your help with an important form that helps our schools access state Economically Disadvantaged funds. These funds provide services for all students and help keep our local tax burden reasonable. This form is not for school breakfast/lunch purposes; it provides information needed by the Maine Department of Education to determine subsidy amounts under Maine’s Essential Programs & Services Funding Act.
Please fill the form out and return as soon as possible. If you do not get a form please let the office know and we will send a new one, or you can print it off and send it in.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

Whitefield School will be conducting a 3 bus run this afternoon. We apologize for any inconveniences this may cause. Please remember that drop off times this afternoon may be earlier or later than normal. We hope to be back to our normal 4 bus runs tomorrow.

In the morning, the bus route that is affected by this is David Cote's bus, bus number 20. This includes Jefferson Road, Heath Road, Hilton Road, Head Tide Road, East River Road and parts of Wiscasset Road. Pick up for these students will be late. Students can be brought to school and dropped off as early as 7:30am. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and we thank you for your patience and understanding.

Due to circumstances beyond our control and lack of available substitute bus drivers, Whitefield School will be conducting a 3 bus run both morning and afternoon on Tuesday, September 6th and Wednesday, September 7th. Due to the nature of a 3 bus run, pick up and drop off times may vary with pick ups and drop offs possibly being earlier or later than normal. It is hard for us to pinpoint an exact time for pick up and drop offs for each student at this time. We apologize for any inconveniences this may cause. If this is an issue or causes any concerns for you, we suggest dropping off and picking up your students at school. You may reach the school tomorrow after 7:15am if you have any questions or concerns.
