Local districts kick off new school year

34 mins read

FARMINGTON – It’s fresh starts all around as the school year kicks off for students, teachers, administrators and other staff members.

“This is a brand new job for me. There are a lot of new faces here in the district and I’m looking forward to seeing how we can all work together,” Regional School Unit 73 Superintendent Scott Albert said.

Albert has been principal at Spruce Mountain Middle School for the last 19 years but was hired as the new superintendent in the spring of 2019. This year, Albert and the Board of Directors will work to live stream all of their meetings to accommodate those that can’t attend, he said.

School began today for RSU 73. The district will host a community barbecue on Wednesday, Sept. 4 beginning at 5 p.m. on the middle school/high school campus. The barbecue is open to the public.

Also stepping into a new position as superintendent is Todd Sanders working for Maine School Administrative District 58. Sanders has had the summer to prepare for the school year, but said he’s looking forward to everyone coming together next week. MSAD 58 will begin their school year on Tuesday, Sept. 3. Sanders said he plans to spend the year getting the lay of the land, with no intentions of making any big changes.

“There are a lot of new faces this year. There will be a lot of growing for 58,” he said.

RSU 9 had its first day Wednesday, with kindergartens through 9th graders reporting and older high school students waiting until Thursday. This year’s theme is collective efficacy: working together and taking responsibility for the entire community.

According to Superintendent Tina Meserve, new initiatives include the Building Assets, Reducing Risks program at high school. That program is aimed at helping high school teachers coordinate resources for freshmen, a cohort that generally experiences higher suspension rates and failure rates for classes. Staff researched the BARR concept last year and requested the addition to assist middle school students making the jump to high school. Other districts that have used the program have reported decreases in in suspensions and failed classes within a year, including a neighboring school.

The $50,000 cost of the three-year program was covered through a grant; the district is paying a $3,000 stipend to oversee the program.

One new challenge this year is ensuring that 7th graders and high school seniors meet the vaccination requirement of having the Meningococcal vaccine. Mt. Blue district nurses came in during the summer to call the parents of students impacted by the change in the law, Meserve said, but as of Monday there were 70 students in grades 7 and 12 that needed the vaccination or a medical waiver. As of last night, that number was down to 45, and Meserve hoped that the remaining students were on their way to school with their vaccination paperwork. The first day of school was an important one for students, she noted, and staff didn’t want anyone to miss out.

Staffing issues that have plagued other parts of the state have mostly avoided RSU 9, with Meserve reporting few vacancies as the school year begins.

Students at W.G. Mallett School and Cascade Brook School can look forward to new playground equipment, including some handicapped-accessible equipment.
