Happy Holidays! 🎉❄️
As we wrap up 2025, we wish everyone a joyful and restful holiday season. Enjoy the two-week school break—take time to relax, recharge, and make great memories with family and friends. We look forward to seeing you refreshed and ready in the new year!

The School Board invites families, staff, and community members to a special workshop focused on the future of our district’s Pre-K program on January 15 at 6:00 PM in the Gyger Room at Greely High School.

GHS Madrigal Singers performed holiday favorites, portions of the Vivaldi Gloria and even a Christmas Carol sing along with the Maine Youth Orchestra at the Greely Center for the Arts last week 🎶

Over the years, the school calendar has followed a consistent pattern: if there is a day off during a given week, the Wednesday of that week is a full day; otherwise, Wednesdays are early release days.

This year is a bit different. You will notice that there are two Wednesdays—January 7 and February 25—that are full days, even though they do not follow this usual pattern. Please note that this is not a mistake or a typo.

Every other Friday, Mr. Steven's and Ms. Soelberg's classes team up for Reading Buddies, and it’s one of the sweetest parts of the week! The 2nd graders read to their Kindergarten buddies for 15–20 minutes, and sometimes they add in a fun craft activity, too.

What makes it extra special?
✨ They keep the same buddies all year, building confidence, friendship, and strong connections.
✨ The 2nd graders get to shine as positive role models, while the K students grow their love for reading.
✨ It brings the school community together—everyone looks forward to it every two weeks!
These little moments make a big difference. 💕📖
