Good Afternoon from RSU 56,
Due to an outside power issue at Dirigo Elementary School we are going to do early dismissal today, 2/4/26 across the entire district. Students will be released at 12:30 today.

There will be NO 21st century program at the Elementary school, and NO middle school wrestling practice today.

Dirigo High School, and Dirigo Middle School will still have after activities as scheduled, but parents will need to bring their students back to the school at those times.

We apologize for the inconvenience.
