Dirigo High School

Opportunity for Juniors!

Just a reminder that tomorrow 8/27/25 is the first day of school for grades K-6 and Grade 9. Tomorrow is not a late arrival Wednesday,

Grades 7 -8 & 10-12 will start on Thursday, 8/28/25.

PreK will start on 9/2/25.

The first day(s) of school are just around the corner!

8/27 is an A Day - which means it is the first day of school for incoming freshmen and A Day Region 9 students. (Freshmen families, don’t forget about 9th Grade Family Night on 8/27 from 5:30-7pm! Doors will open at 5pm.)

8/28 is a B Day - upperclassmen and B Day Region 9 students will start on 8/28.

A school calendar was mailed to each family, and can also be found on the RSU 56 website for reference.

Region 9 students; please remember to communicate your lunch/breakfast needs with Nutrition, and to pick up your lunches at the high school before heading to Region 9 for the day.

Students will receive their Yondr pouches to secure their personal electronic devices on the first day they are in the building and will receive their laptops once all required paperwork has been completed and turned in. 

We look forward to seeing you all!

Dirigo High School will be hosting a pizza dinner for all 9th grade students and their families. This evening event will give families a chance to meet DHS staff and get important information about high school. We will start in the cafeteria. Entrance to the building will be through the Weld Street door at the front of the building.

We hope to see you there!!
