April 13, 2021 Dear Staff, Parents, and Community Members: This letter is to inform you that a member of the R.S.U. No. 67 school community has tested positive for COVID-19. As with every positive COVID-19 case, the district is working directly with Maine DOE/CDC to determine the infectious period and contact tracing requirements, based on the impacted individual’s last day of attendance before developing symptoms or testing positive. Those who are impacted will be contacted. Due to the number of individuals in quarantine, and our inability to provide bus transportation, all R.S.U. No. 67 schools will be remote for the remainder of the week. We continue to ask all families and staff to monitor students for any symptoms. All individuals should contact a health care provider if they develop symptoms. April Vacation Recovery School has been cancelled. General questions regarding COVID-19 can be answered by calling 1-866-811-5695, you can text your zip code to 898-211, or email at info@211maine.org or by calling your primary care provider. More information can be found at www.maine/gov/dhhs/coronavirus or www.cdc.gov/coronavirus. Questions regarding student health can be directed to Jeri Davis, RN by calling 794-6711 or by emailing: jdavis@rsu67.org. Questions regarding scheduling or instruction should be directed to Ella P. Burr at 794-3014, Mattanawcook Jr. High School at 794-8935, or Mattanawcook Academy at 794-8935. Jean Skorapa, Superintendent Regional School Unit 67 25 Reed Drive Lincoln, Maine 04457 207-794-6500

In order to keep students safe and provide room for the arriving busses, parents are asked when picking up students at EPB please enter via Reed Drive (MA entrance) and turn right at the back parking lot. Parking is available in the designated areas in the back lot and along the side of EPB. Parents picking up their children should wait outside the front doors by the main office. There will be 2 handicapped parking spaces located in the front parking area. Only those requiring one of these spaces should enter EPB via the EPB driveway. All parents would then exit via the EPB driveway.

A reminder to those families remaining remote. Packet pick up is Monday (if it's a holiday it's Tuesday) from 8:00-1:30. Please remember to drop off work from the previous week in the bin in the entryway.

Next week we will be in the hybrid format, meaning "blue" classrooms will come to school on Monday and Tuesday, "white" classrooms will be here on Wednesday and Thursday, and all classrooms will be remote on Friday. Families who are remaining remote need to let their classroom teacher know so packets can be prepared (ONLY FULLY REMOTE STUDENTS). Packets for fully remote students will be available for pick up on Monday between 8 am and 3 pm.

Remote families, don't forget to pick up your student packets before 5:00 on Monday, December 21.

Packet pick up for all students will be Monday, December 21 from 7-5. Students who were in school on Thursday took their packets home but all other students, please come pick the learning materials for the week following vacation. Thank you.

Packet drop off and pick up will be from 8-5 on Friday, December 4. Please return the packet sent home before Thanksgiving and there will be a new packet with supplemental materials for next weeks remote lessons. It would be very helpful if you could write the teacher's name on the envelope when you return it. See you tomorrow.

Packet pick up for students in "white" classrooms and fully remote students will be from 8:00 am until 5:00 pm on Friday, December 11. "Blue" classrooms will be in person on Monday and Tuesday and will leave school on Tuesday with the materials for remote instruction to end the week.

Just a reminder you can pick up packets at EPB until 5:00 today.
