Mr. O'Leary invites the entire RSU1 community to William Shakespeare's Hamlet, Wednesday through Friday, October 27th through the 29th. Wednesday's performance is at 3pm, and Thursday and Friday's performances are at 6pm. Tickets are $10 for adults and $5 for students and senior citizens. We are performing outdoors, right in front of the new Morse High School. This is NOT your grandmother's Hamlet! Come one: come all! The show is only 75 minutes without intermission. We will see you in the theatre, outdoors, in less than two weeks!
Attention Morse Students: This Friday, 10/15/21, is the last day to drop a year-long or first-semester course without a record of the course posting to your transcript. Any dropped course after 10/15 will post as a withdrawal pass (WP) or a withdrawal fail (WF).
Since we do not have school on next Friday or Monday, we need to make the following adjustment to the schedule in order to avoid a full week without having some classes:
Tuesday, October 12 will follow a Friday class schedule, rather than the normal Tuesday schedule.
Thank you!

We need your help!
Even though all meals are at no charge, our District benefits immensely from the data that is gathered from the Free & Reduced Meals Applications.
We are asking that all families in RSU1 please complete the Free and Reduced Meals Application for the 2021-22 school year. As always, the information we receive is confidential.
Based upon the information we receive in these applications, RSU1 can qualify for the following:
Title I Funding (extra federal funds for districts that qualify)
After-school Program Funding
Special Education Funding
Much more – things like grants, debt forgiveness, etc.
If we don’t receive these applications from families, some of the programming at your child’s school could be negatively impacted.
You can fill out the paper application or complete the application online by going to: https://www.nlappscloud.com/ and searching for “RSU1” under Maine Schools.
Thank you for helping us continue to receive this important funding by completing the Free & Reduced Meals Application!

If your Morse student has not been vaccinated against COVID-19, now is an excellent time to complete this before school starts in September. Students who receive their first dose by August 13, will receive their second dose by the time school begins in September. Students who are fully vaccinated (14 days after their second dose), will not need to quarantine and miss school if they are a close contact of COVID-19.

No appointment is required and the clinic is open to everyone of all ages.

People attending the yard sale will be able tour many parts of the old school and purchase items of interest by donation.

Let’s support them with gracious donations while yard-saling and saying goodbye to the Old Morse High School and Bath Tech building.
