We have limited available slots in our RSU 12 staff daycare for children aged 3 to 5. Our staff members have not claimed all these slots; thus, we are opening them to individuals outside our organization. This is an excellent opportunity for anyone who knows someone who is searching for daycare services. Please note that this daycare operates on a school-year schedule. Please keep in mind that it is on a first come, first-served basis. The daycare is located at Windsor Elementary School. The daycare schedule runs during the school day, during school hours. Thank you. If you are interested, kindly email rsu12daycare@gmail.com as soon as possible.
We will be switching breakfast on Monday, October 2 and Tuesday, October 3.
Monday will be waffle sticks, fruit and milk.
Tuesday will be a bagel with cream cheese, fruit and milk.

From Principal Deblois:
Whew...the first days flew by but were positive and productive.
Our new procedure for parents bringing their children to school and picking them up at the close of school is working very well. With that said, I am still observing parents parking on Route #126. Please use the upper parking lot for everyone's sake. Even this afternoon, with a large number of parents coming in to pick up their children, there were a good number of vacant parking spots available. Also, with the exception of the parking spot next to the handicapped reserved space, the spaces directly in front of the school are available for parent usage as well. Finally, please enter and exit the upper parking lot through the entrance closest to the playground / basketball court (the left side entrance if you are facing the school). This will keep you from being caught up in bus traffic and will provide plenty of room for our buses to maneuver.
I recognize this procedure is all new and has actually worked quite well. With a few more tweaks it will even be better.
Thanks for your cooperation in this effort and I hope you all enjoy a terrific holiday weekend. We'll see everyone on Tuesday.

Yesterday, volunteers from Calvary Bible Baptist Church came over and started painting 4 square courts on our newly resurfaced basketball court. They look amazing, but they aren't finished yet. They plan on coming back this weekend to finish up the work. The basketball court is roped off. We ask that everyone stay off of the basketball court until the caution tape comes down. We thank you for you r cooperation in this.
