George E. Jack students participated in a virtual baking class sponsored by King Arthur Baking Company. Students received all the ingredients needed to bake 2 loaves of bread, and a recipe book with lots of other choices. Students were encouraged to make a loaf of bread for their family, and share a loaf of a bread with a member of the community. Look at all the delicious baking our students have done so far! Great work GEJ students and families, and thanks to Mrs. Sibley for signing us up for the program!

Greetings Bonny Eagle, Due to the anticipated inclement weather and expected hazardous road conditions throughout the day, there will be No School for all MSAD 6 Schools on Thursday February 13, 2025. While snow accumulations may stay low, the potential for icing is strongly contributing to this decision. If we try to hold school and the ice accumulates it would be too late to reverse the decision. For these reasons, I feel it is in the best interest of students and staff safety to close schools for the day. With this snow day, our second of the year, the new last day of school will be Monday, June 16, 2025. We will formally update the calendar after the winter storm season is over. I apologize for the inconvenience that comes with this decision. I am letting the community know in advance, rather than waiting until morning, so families can make plans. I won’t always be able to notify families in advance but feel that in this circumstance it is the right thing to do. Some of you might be wondering about Remote Instruction days. You can read the full School Closing Procedure document including plans for remote days here: https://docs.google.com/…/1Nnje9S7XCcD-G6DaX_YZpnBmDq…/edit…. In short, remote instruction days are inconvenient for many parents and present challenges for some staff, especially those with their own young children at home. I will consider using remote instruction days after our third traditional snow day to avoid extending the school year deeper into June. Stay safe during the storm and contact me with specific concerns or questions. Regards, Clay Gleason Superintendent of Schools
