On the evening of Tuesday, March 9th, 2021, there will be a School Board Meeting starting at 6:00pm. The meeting can be viewed on the EHS Facebook page, the City of Ellsworth YouTube channel and on Spectrum Channel 1303 in Ellsworth. The agenda can be viewed at:

Attention parents and students of ESD
There are a few changes to our bus run schedule for Monday 3/8.
Monday 3/5--Bus 17 will pick up bus 17 students 5 to 10 minutes early. This will afford the opportunity for the bus 7 students to be picked up by bus 17 only 5 to 10 minutes later than normal.Bus 17 students that live in Woodland Acres will be picked up by bus 4 in the morning and need to be ready to board the bus by 6:50 am. These students will be dropped off on the pm run by bus 13.
Bus 4 students will be picked up 5 to 10 minutes early. This will afford the opportunity for bus 1 students to be picked up by bus 4 5 to 10 minutes later than normal.
Bus 8 and 9 students will be picked up in one run by bus 9. This will make the pickup of bus 8 students between 5 and 10 minutes later than normal.
Those students that go to the Beechland Y will be picked up and dropped off by bus #2 on the first run. This may be a difference of up to 5 minutes from their normal times.
All other busses will have their normal runs.
Please be aware that, while this notice has specific bus numbers, there is a slight chance that a different bus will stop to pick or drop off students.
Thank you all again for your patience as we work through this process. It has not gone unnoticed.
We will make another announcement Monday afternoon for the rest of the week's bus schedule.
If you have any questions please email twood@ellsworthschools.org or call the bus garage at 412-0280.
Attention Bus #7 students and parents
As a reminder, 3/5 (today) bus 7 students will be dropped off later than usual. As always, thank you for patience as we work through the driver shortage.
EEMS Wrestling Announcement
Wrestling (for grades 5-8) will be on Mondays and Thursdays from 5-6 in the MS Gym starting this coming Monday 3/8, for conditioning only. It will be for both cohorts, fully remote and homeschooled students. We will have conditioning twice a week (Monday and Thursday) until March 25th. (Total of 6 times).
At the end of each school day, wrestling students (on site) will be asked to leave school grounds (go home by parent, walk or bus) and come back for the conditioning at 4:50pm for the 5pm start. Off cohort students, fully remote and homeschooled students should also be dropped off at 4:50pm.
Coach Horne will have permission slips for the kids to bring home Monday evening. We will need these signed and returned by Thursday's conditioning practice.
If you have any questions please email twood@ellsworthschools.org
This evening's Board workshop has been cancelled. There is no make up date.
Attention Bus 7 & Bus 8 students and parents:
Due to a shortage of bus drivers--students from bus 7 and bus 8 will be on second runs this afternoon 2/23.
They should be dropped off 15 to 20 minutes later than usual.
Thank you for your patience and understanding

Attention Bus 17 parents and students
Great news, Bus 17 will run normal runs starting in the morning 2/11.
Edaco Court Residents:
Starting tomorrow -Thursday, 2/11
Students that ride the bus will need to be at the end of the road - by route 172 - for pick up starting tomorrow morning until further notice. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Urgent Bus Transportation Update for the week of 2-9 to 2-12
This communication is to inform you that due to a shortage of bus drivers for Ellsworth School Department (ESD), pick and drop off times will be, in some cases, later than normal. At this time this shortage will affect parents and students of Bus #1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 9 and 17-for the rest of this week 2/9/21-2/12/21. However, it is important to know that other bus runs may be affected.
While this situation is not ideal, we have found a way to ensure all students have a way to and from school.
Bus #4 will be picking up the students for its normal run and add Bus #17 students that live on Bridge Hill and Woodland Heights for the first run in the mornings and in the afternoons. Bus #4 will then pick up Bus 7 students as well as bus 17 students that live on Straway and Edaco Court for the second run in the morning. Afternoon bus #4 will have the regular students and those students from bus 17 that live on Bridge Hill and Woodland Heights to drop off on the first run. Bus 4 will then return to school and pick up bus 7 students along with bus 17 students that live on Straway and Edaco Court for the second afternoon run.
Bus #2 will be picking up the students for the normal run and add Bus #17 students that are at Beechland Y for the morning run. In the afternoon, bus 2 will have the regular students along with those going to the Beechland Y.
We are still working out the particulars for Bus 8 for the rest of the week but without our drivers numbers changing, Bus 8 would be split between bus 1 and bus 9.
The impact for pick up and drop off times may be anywhere from 20 to 30 minutes. If you feel that these times are too inconvenient you may want to drop off and pick up your child, which is understandable. If you decide to pick up or drop off your child please let us know. This will afford the opportunity to remove stops from the route which in turn may allow the busses to get the students to and from school in a more timely manner.
Thank you for your patience and understanding as we work through this together.
ATTENTION BUS #7 Parents and students for 2/9/21:
Bus 7 will be 15 to 20 minutes late picking up in. the morning. More information to come about the afternoon as soon as it is known.
Thank you again for you patience.

ESD School Board Meeting Postponed to Friday, September 11, 2020
The agenda for this evening’s meeting included as its primary item “Discussion and Consideration of Fall Athletics.” As communicated when we postponed the Board meeting on Tuesday evening, we anticipated receiving updated guidance for school sports from the Maine Principals’ Association and State agencies earlier today. However, as of 2:15 p.m. this afternoon, that guidance has yet to be released to school departments.
So that administration may review the revised guidelines and finalize a recommendation and that the Board may review, properly discuss, and consider the recommendation, we are postponing the meeting until Friday, September 11, 2020 at 6:30 p.m.
The meeting will be held in City Council Chambers, broadcast on the city public access channel and streamed live over Facebook.

Dear EES (K-4) Parents,
Thank you for calling, emailing, and completing the survey questions to ensure that EES had all the information needed to meet your child’s learning needs for the start of the school year. Mrs. Richards, Mrs. Perlman, Mrs. Webber, Ms. Lagasse and Mrs. Brown will all be working directly with our remote only students. This has caused a shift in homeroom placements for many students, even if you were not placed in their homerooms. Please know that all changes in class placements have been reviewed by the previous grade level teachers including specialists and support services. Letters from your child’s teacher for school year 2020-20221 will be mailed soon.
I am so proud of our Ellsworth community for the support they have shown our school. It is going to be a great year.
Mrs. Clifford, Principal K-4
2019-20 K-4 Vacation Reading Challenge Bikes for Books Drawing
Tuesday, August 18th
During the 2019-20 school year, students at EEMS in grades K-4 had the opportunity to have their name entered, up to 3 times, into an end-of-year bike drawing by meeting the November, December, and February school break reading challenge. The Ellsworth Masons of Lygonia Lodge #40 have once again supported this effort by donating 10 bikes and helmets for the drawing— 2 (boy/girl) for each K-4 grade level. Families of each winner will receive a phone call to coordinate a time for pickup at the school.
Thank you to the Ellsworth Masons of Lygonia Lodge #40 for helping us with this effort for a 5th year!
Calls from EEMS
EEMS will be making calls today to confirm remote only learning for those that selected it on the 'return to school survey'. If you chose in person learning you will not be receiving a call. For those that chose in person and want to change to remote please call front office.

Please remind your children to complete their survey before turning in their devices so that we can know how they experience remote learning and how we can support them.
If you did not receive links to these surveys, please contact the help desk at tech@ellsworthschools.org. Thank you!
