RSU 12's very own Mr. Howard Tuttle was named Maine Superintendent of the Year! He was quick to attribute the district's successes to the hard work of RSU 12 staff, the school board, and the RSU 12 community; but we know that it took his leadership and example to make it all happen. Congratulations, Mr. Tuttle! We're lucky to have you!
