Due to the impending snowstorm, RSU 56 will be having an early release day today, Thursday, February 6, 2025. Student dismissal will begin at 11:30. No after school activities. Be safe everyone!
Due to the predicted timing of the impending storm for Thursday, February 6, 2025, RSU 56 is tentatively planning an early release day. School would begin at the regular time; however, student dismissal would begin at 11:30 Thursday morning. The storm is slated to start between noon and 1:00 in our towns. We believe this would allow for all students and staff to be home safely before the snow accumulates. There would be no after school activities. Please note that, if the storm track changes, new information will come out in the morning.
Good Morning. Our district phone system is down this morning. If you leave us a voicemail, we will receive it, and answer you as soon as possible.
