There will be no school for SVES students tomorrow, Wednesday, September 8th due to staff shortages. This is for Sebasticook Valley Elementary students only.
Students at SVES riding the bus will be arriving at their stops this afternoon 20 minutes later than usual. Loading buses the first few days often takes longer than is typical to make sure all students are on the correct buses. If you have questions, please do not hesitate to call the school at 368-4592.
Due to the current high transmission rates of COVID, SVES will be having a modified Open House event tomorrow, August 31 from 5:30-6:30. Starting at 5:30, staff from SVES will be available to meet and greet parents and students outside. Teachers will be holding up signs indicating the grade level they teach and their names to make them easier to find. PK parents are welcome to meet teachers by the PK playground. Staff members will be available to help point you in the right direction. We recommend wearing masks to this event. Masked students will be invited to go on a tour of their classroom following the meet and greet. Parents will be provided with the typical Open House paperwork to complete outside on clipboards, or in your vehicle while students take a tour inside. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call the school at 368-4592.
SVES would like to request that parents/guardians contact the school today if you have any changes since last school year to your child(ren)'s pick up or drop off locations for this 2021/2022 school year. The number to the school is 207-368-4592.
SVES would like to remind parents that today is an early release day. Students being picked up will be dismissed around 11:00. We ask that parents picking up your child arrive around 10:50. We will be having a 4th grade graduation ceremony today, so any parent arriving prior to 10:50 will need to park in the lower parking lot if there are no available spaces in the normal parent pick up line. . The early bus will leave the school today around 10:45 and regular bus students will be dismissed at 11:30. If you are attending the fourth grade graduation ceremony today, you can park at the curb in front of the school or in the lower parking lot. We ask that parents wait to enter the school until 8:45 for the event. You must wear a mask to attend the event and each student may only have two adults attend. If you have any questions or need the link to the event, please feel free to call SVES at 368-4592.
SVES will be collecting hotspots and devices from remote learners on Monday, June 14 from 7:30AM-3:00PM; Tuesday, June 15 from 12:30-3:00PM; Wednesday, June 16 from 7:30-12:00 or 2:00-5:00PM.

Thank you to our parents and family members of SVES for making our pick-up procedures in the afternoon run so smoothly. As the weather gets nicer, we know that it is tempting to get out of your vehicles to wait in the sunshine for your child during afternoon pick up time. We would like to request that you please remain in your vehicles while in the parent pick-up car line so you are prepared to pull ahead if the staff outside directs you to do so. If you are the parent of a PK or K child and need to get out of your vehicle to assist your child into a booster seat, or with buckling, please wait until you see your child exiting the school to do so. Thank you again for your help in continuing to make afternoon student pick-up time run so smoothly.
This is a message for family members of students that attend SVES. We want to thank you for all that you are doing this year to help keep our school open and safe for students. We would like your help continuing to make morning drop off as safe as possible. Please remember to drive slowly through the drop off area in the morning and to pull all the way up the walkway area when you drop off, so other parents can pull in behind. Please try to have your student(s) exit the vehicle on the passenger side, as it is closest to the walkway. We would also like to remind parents to continue to monitor your child(ren) each morning and keep them home if they are not feeling well. If you are unsure if your child(ren) is feeling well enough to come to school, we ask you to err on the cautious side and keep them home. Thank you for your help keeping our school safe for all students.
