RSU 38 board approves calendar change to make up Nov. 14 missed school day; also accepts retirements, donations and OKs international trip
Summary
The RSU 38 Board of Directors voted to modify the school calendar to make up the Nov. 14 missed day using two early‑release days (Jan. 29 and March 5), accepted retirements and donations, and unanimously approved an international student trip for April 2026.
The RSU 38 Board of Directors voted to modify the district calendar to make up a school day missed on Nov. 14, 2024, opting to use two early‑release days on Jan. 29 and March 5 that together provide the required minimum instructional hours.
The superintendent told the board that state law requires at least five hours to constitute a make‑up day and that the two early‑release days would total six hours. She recommended the Jan. 29 and March 5 dates after surveying staff and checking logistics such as bus routes and food service. The board approved the calendar change by roll call; the superintendent said she would file the required waiver with the state and notify families.
