Subject: IMPORTANT: Transportation Change for Tuesday, June 9, 2026

Dear Families,
Please be advised that we will have a bus schedule change on Tuesday, June 9, 2026, affecting students on Andrew’s Bus Run. Andrew’s bus run will leave school at 2:00 pm instead of the usual time of 2:20 pm. Andrew’s bus students will be home about 20 minutes earlier than their usual time.

We appreciate your patience and flexibility as we ensure all our students get home from school safely.

Here are a few pictures from yesterday's Class of 2026 trip to Portland. This group is ready to graduate next Friday!

Good luck to the Southern Aroostook Middle School Baseball & Softball teams in their final regular season games this morning @ Presque Isle (2 games). Game times are 10:00 and 11:30 am.

Glow big or go home! High energy, high engagement, and a whole lot of neon. Today’s Fifth Grade Glow Day was one for the books!

Fifth graders went to the planetarium, Urban Air, and Sweet Frog for their end of the year field trip!

Mrs. Gallop’s first graders read books with Mrs. York’s fifth graders.  Then, the fifth graders turned those books into board games. Today we came back together to play the games! So much fun!

High School students are doing Project Based Learning this week! Here's a couple candids taken by a high school student Oscar Grayham!

4th Graders made a map of our State & identified rivers, mountains, cities & landmarks.

Yesterday SACS Elementary had their field day! It was hot but perfect for all the water activities!

It's brunch day at SACS!!
