Dear RSU 23 Community,
Law enforcement efforts continue to be underway to apprehend the individual responsible for the shootings. We want to assure you that we are taking the necessary steps to provide support and ensure the safety of our school community. Although the incident did not occur within our town directly, we understand the impact tragedies such as this can have on all of us in Maine.

We know many of you will be discussing this with your children and coming to terms with it yourselves. Violence of this nature is difficult to understand. As partners in your child’s wellbeing, we want you to know the district has support in place to help students process their feelings at school. HERE is a resource for parents and educators as you prepare to talk with children about this tragedy.

We also ask that you share any concerns or information related to the incident with our school administration or law enforcement as appropriate.

Sincerely,


John Suttie
RSU 23 Superintendent of Schools
