Good Afternoon RSU 57 Families.
Forecasts for tomorrow, Friday February 3rd, are calling for dangerously cold weather throughout our region. With this arrival of arctic air, we are asking that families do what they can to limit exposure to students who are riding RSU 57 transportation to and/or from school. When possible, for students awaiting a bus pick up in the morning, we ask students to remain in a vehicle until the bus arrives or wait inside their residence until the bus pulls up for direct pick up. Our RSU 57 bus drivers have been instructed to provide extra time at pick ups so that students can wait inside and then come out to board the bus. With this being the case, we ask that families prepare for later than typical pick up times as buses will be taking extra time at stops so that students can remain indoors or in a car whenever possible.
Tomorrow, during the afternoon transportation drop off, we are encouraging families to meet their student(s) at the bus stop so that they can avoid having to walk any distance in the extreme cold. The temperatures tomorrow afternoon will be lower than the temperatures at the start of the day.
Thank you to our RSU 57 families for your partnership in working to safely transport our students to and from school when faced with extreme weather challenges.
A special 'thank you' to our AES families and community members for the multiple sled donations! Our students have already begun putting them to good use! Our staff and students are so grateful for your generosity and support of our school:)
On Monday, AES students in grades 3-5 learned about recycling during a grade span assembly. A representative from ECOMaine presented an engaging slide show about how recycling travels through the recycling plant in Portland. Students competed in a recycling relay to test their knowledge of how to dispose of common items. Every student received a generously donated reusable bag from Hannaford to take home. Students learned a lot while having fun!
Let's congratulate Billie, MCAL's newest high school graduate! She has worked so hard and we are all so proud of her success. Well done, Billie!

Good Morning. Due to first responders responding to a fire located in the vicinity of Alfred Elementary School this morning, Alfred Elementary School will have a 2-Hour delay today January 18..
