March 14, 2023 Good Evening, Currently all district schools have power and we are hopeful that remains the case throughout the evening hours. There are high snow accumulations throughout the district with several more hours of snowfall to go. In order to do the best job clearing the snow from walkways, parking lots, and bus loops we will run a two hour delay tomorrow morning (Wednesday, March 15, 2023). For those of you new to the district, a two hour delay means that everything in the morning is bumped by two hours. For example, if your student is typically picked up at 7:15am, plan for two hours later, at 9:15am. That said, please be sure to have your student outside a bit earlier than pick up time. MSAD #60 drivers will take their time on the roadways but by having students out early it will assist in cutting down some wait time. Please be aware that a two hour delay counts as a student day. Please also be aware that we need to continue to monitor roadways and power throughout the district as we get closer to the morning. Should anything change we will send out notification. Thank you, Audra Beauvais Superintendent of Schools

Good Evening, The forecast for Tuesday has remained consistent in the start time of the snowfall and accumulation amounts. Due to the duration of the storm, the predicted heavy snow and high winds, it will not be a safe decision to open school even for a half day. Therefore, Tuesday, March 14, 2023 will be a no school day. Sincerely, Audra Beauvais Superintendent of Schools

March 13, 2023 Dear MSAD #60 Community; The weather patterns certainly have not been in our favor over the course of the winter season. While there have been a few weekend storms, the bulk of the accumulating snowfall has occurred during the work/school week. Just when it was looking like big snow storms were in our rearview mirror, here we are dealing with another one, front and center. It is important to relay information in anticipation of Tuesday and Wednesday snowfall, snow cleanup, and school schedules. The district is carefully monitoring weather reports and radar tracking for this storm. Based on the information we have at this time, we are canceling the late start/early release schedule for Wednesday, March 15, 2023. That means that for this week, Wednesday will follow the typical Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday schedule. That shift provides flexibility if there is a need to call a straight across-the-board two hour delay on Wednesday morning due to road clean up. Some school offices have fielded a few questions about remote snow/inclement weather days. Remote snow days were not an option for MSAD #60 this year due to some specific regulations around online learning and school nutrition. There is an additional concern for the high number of power outages across the district and the impact to student attendance. The regulations are evolving and we hope to integrate some form of remote learning days for inclement weather days for the 2023-2024 school year. We will keep you posted on any potential school schedule updates for Tuesday, March 14, 2023. Sincerely, Audra Beauvais Superintendent of Schools

January 27, 2023 Dear Noble Community; Earlier this month, an act of violence occurred in the south in which a young man was pulled over, beaten, and later died. It has been reported that authorities anticipate releasing video footage of this event which may be traumatizing for students and adults alike. Whether families follow the news closely, or not, many students will encounter various levels of exposure to the footage on social media. The footage will impact community members in various ways. As students struggle to process what they see, take the time to listen to your children, answer the questions that you can, and know that it’s okay not to have all the answers. Please know that your child’s school is here to help if your child is having a hard time. Our schools are equipped with skilled counselors and staff members who are trained to support students in processing difficult situations. We have included some resource links below to help with supportive conversations with your children, and encourage you to reach out as needed. How to Talk to Kids about Tragedies in the Media (Child Development Institute) Talking to Children about Violence (National Association of School Psychologists) Age-Related Reactions to a Traumatic Event (The National Child Traumatic Stress Network) Assisting Parents/Caregivers in Coping with Collective Traumas (The National Child Traumatic Stress Network) Creating Supportive Environments When Scary Things Happen (Center for Resilience & Well-Being in Schools How To Talk To Your Kids About Difficult World Events How to Talk to Your Child About the News - Kids Health Sincerely, Audra Beauvais Superintendent of Schools

Please note that the buildings should be closed down to all activity by 7:00pm tonight.

January 24, 2023 Dear MSAD #60 Families; Please let this correspondence serve as a district update. At this writing the only school currently without power is Noble High School. That is a big improvement from this morning! We are very hopeful that by Wednesday morning power will be restored to the high school allowing all facilities to run “per usual.” Tomorrow, Wednesday, January 25, 2023 is currently scheduled as a Late Start/Early Release day on the calendar. That will remain in effect. There is one more day of scheduled exams for high school students set to occur tomorrow before the new semester begins. What a long and drawn out exam period this has been! Looking ahead, there appears to be some inclement weather coming in late Wednesday through the early morning on Thursday. While poor road conditions and power outages certainly have been challenging over the last handful of days, based on the forecast it doesn’t appear like our community is fully out of the woods yet. As a result of the projected forecast, the Administrative Team met this morning to assess what resources we have available should the district have an inclement weather day again on Thursday. Right now there are several large barriers (power and internet service being the two largest) to having a remote learning day so the district is going to take a more traditional route. Students in kindergarten through grade seven will go home Wednesday afternoon with some literacy and math extension activities to work on Thursday-should there be no school. The upper grades will have a robust feedback form to complete for the district-wide Strategic Plan revision process. Additionally, Principal Dufort is working with the presenter who is set to be at NHS on Thursday to see what options would be available should we not be in session. The high school will provide more information directly should “Plan B” be necessary. While none of the activities take the place of or "count" as a full in-session day, they do provide students extension activities to keep learning/academic opportunities open to them. In closing, I would be remiss if I did not acknowledge how challenging these past three inclement weather days have been. It is never an easy decision to cancel school. It is actually one of the harder decisions to make as it impacts families across the district. Please know that these decisions are made with student, teacher, and staff safety as the very top priority. Thank you for your continued support and understanding. Sincerely, Audra Beauvais

Due to widespread power outages, all MSAD 60 Schools will be closed today January 24, 2023.

This is a reminder from MSAD 60. Tomorrow, Wednesday, January 18, 2023, is not a Late Start/ Early Release Day.

MINUTES OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MEETING OF November 03, 2022 Current Board Members- North Berwick- Lauren Janousek, Kate Whalen, Lynn Manley Berwick- Travis Doiron, Elva Lovejoy, Denise Mallett Lebanon- Victoria Travers, Stephanie Hagenbuch, Nancy Neubert Student Representative- Echo Balistreri A meeting of the Board of Directors was held in person in North Berwick, Maine on November 3, 2022 at 7:00 p.m. with all members attending except Ms. Travers and Ms. Mallett. 1 in the audience.

All members voted in favor except Ms. Neubert, who abstained, and the motion passed. Student Report: Ms. Echo Balistreri, student board representative, shared with the board the student report: Biking Club: met this Tuesday- students brought bikes to the school- Beau Lambert’s goals: students can learn how to repair the bikes they already have, help them to make jewelry utilizing parts of a bike (spokes) and organize group rides Rise: 8-12th grade students watched “The First Day”-- a film by Chris Herron -- Highlights the significance of the beginning of a substance or mental disorder rather than just focusing on the end. When people think of a drug addict they tend to imagine a rough looking individual who is on the brink of death rather than a physically normal looking person who excels in sports and appears to be “fine”. This set a heavier and more thoughtful tone for the remainder of the day- students and staff could reflect on their life and how they may be able to return to healthy habits themselves. The board then held a second review of the tri fold document that is provided at board meetings. More feedback was received and we will incorporate that for the third review at the next board meeting. MSMA conference update: The Superintendent and the Assistant Superintendent shared with the board the various sessions that were attended at the Maine School Board Association (put on by Maine School Management) conference in Augusta on October 27 and 28.

Safety Forum update. This was held at 5:30 pm today. The presentation was taped and will be up on our website as well as our facebook pages today. Officer Koelker, Officer Fogg and the Superintendent shared information about our safety plans (without specific details). There were not many in the audience, but the availability on line will help and will bring up more questions for sure.

November 18, 2022 Dear Parents/Guardians, We have learned that a small number of schools in Cumberland County received online threats. MSAD #60 has NOT received any such threats. We will continue to be vigilant in monitoring school facilities and work in partnership with our School Resource Officers and first responders. Sincerely, Audra Beauvais Superintendent of Schools

Our apologies. Due to staffing shortages, Lebanon bus 33 Shelly, will not be running today November 18.

November 15, 2022 Dear Noble Community, This notification is sent to provide further information and helpful resources after the non-credible threat was made to Sanford High School earlier this morning. In total, nine high schools across the state of Maine received similar non-credible threats as the one Sanford High School received. This was a hard day for many people not only here at Noble and York County but throughout the entire state of Maine. It pushes on our worst fears of violence in a school setting. That being said, administrators, teachers and staff across the district did an outstanding job keeping the day flowing for all students. While some upper grade level students acquired various pieces of information from peers, the lower grade level students didn’t have information and went about their day as usual. Students attending the morning session at Sanford Regional Technical Center (SRTC) were either picked up by a parent or authorized adult at a reunification spot in Sanford or arrived back at Noble High School late in the morning. While this event caused stress and concern for many people, it also reinforced that we have strong supports in place. Throughout the day districts across the state worked collaboratively with the Maine Information and Analysis Center and the Maine School Safety Center solidifying the partnerships among schools and first responders. Below is a listing of a few resources that may be of help if your student has questions. Both resources focus on talking to children/youth about a traumatic events and the information is applicable and transferable for hard conversations: Helping Children Cope After a Traumatic Event Tips for Talking to Children and Youth After Traumatic Events Please do not hesitate to reach out to your student’s school counselor, teacher, or team should they need some additional support. Sincerely, Audra Beauvais Superintendent of Schools

Good Morning Noble Community, This correspondence is sent to update information regarding Sanford High School. Many of you may have heard reports that there was an active shooter at Sanford High School this morning. It has been verified that this was not credible. Similar reports actually occurred at a few other high schools across the state. Sanford High School followed their safety procedures and locked down the building. Noble High School students attending the morning session of SRTC were already in session and followed the procedures laid out by Sanford. SRTC kept families informed of the situation and Noble High School disseminated similar information to SRTC families. Sincerely, Audra Beauvais Superintendent of Schools
