Principal's Welcome to Memorial School
(Gr K-2)

The K-2 population at Memorial School is fortunate to have a dedicated staff that goes above and beyond expectations to provide a safe, nurturing environment. This quality staff combined with a supportive parent group and an active PTSA provides more than just the three R’s!

Cultural Enrichment opportunities and emphasis on the guiding principles of the Maine Learning Results help to build eager, enthusiastic learners that will be prepared for their next step in the education journey.

Thanks for taking the time to visit the Memorial School website, please check back regularly as there will be frequent updates all year long. If you have suggestions or ideas for our site or our school, feel free to contact me anytime.

Memorial School News/Updates

Updated July 20, 2010

• Kindergarten Screening for any child entering ‘K’ that has not already been screened is on August 6 at Russell School. Parents are requested to contact Mrs. Leavitt at Memorial School (926-4322) for more information.
• Kindergarten Orientation is on August 25th. A letter with more details will be sent home prior to the orientation.
• The school wide Ice Cream Social is on August 25th. Parents and students are invited to join their new classroom teacher from 6:00-6:30 and then at 6:30 everyone will be invited to join together for ice cream and a little to time to reunite prior to the school year starting.
• August 30th is the first day of school, letters with transportation information will be sent home from the transportation office. If you have transportation concerns, please call Rachel at the bus garage, 657-2181.
• A reminder that on Friday September 3rd there is no school, enjoy the long Labor Day weekend!
• September 27th will be our first early release day. Please take time to clarify with your son/daughter any change to their normal dismissal routine. A note to the teacher may also be helpful.
• Information from the school normally comes home in totes. I expect there will be a tote the first day and each of the following Thursdays. You are asked to take out all papers and return the tote (in student's backpack) the very next school day.
• If you plan on volunteering in anyway at Memorial School this year, you are reminded that you must complete a volunteer application first. This includes work in the school, field trips and all other school sponsored activities. An application will be sent home on the first day of school to all parents. If by chance you need one earlier or do not receive one, stop into the office anytime.
