Holocaust Remembrance Day/Yom Hashoah
April 24, 2025, the internationally recognized date for Holocaust Remembrance Day corresponds to the 27th day of Nisan on the Hebrew calendar. It marks the anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising. In Hebrew, Holocaust Remembrance Day is called Yom Hashoah.
As we remember the six million people who were murdered, honor the survivors, pay tribute to the rescuers, and celebrate the liberators, we are reminded of the power of their history to inspire people everywhere to confront all forms of group-targeted hate and genocide.
The Bangor School Department will be closed in observation of Patriot’s Day.
Patriot's Day, formalized as a legal holiday in Maine in 1907, commemorates the battles of Lexington, Concord, and Menotomy, which were some of the first battles of the American Revolutionary War. The holiday occurs on the third Monday of April each year, with celebrations including battle reenactments and the Boston Marathon. At the time of the Revolutionary War, Maine was a part of Massachusetts and was actively involved in these battles.
Happy Sunday and Happy Easter if you celebrate it! I hope you all have a wonderful break next week and I cannot wait to see all of your children on Monday, April 28th!! Here is the weekly newsletter. Enjoy!!

Spring Break is scheduled for April 21 to April 25.
Students will return to classes on Monday, April 28.
Holy week Is the week between Palm Sunday and Easter that encompasses the three most sacred days in the Christian church calendar. It begins at sundown on Holy Thursday, (also known as Maundy Thursday, observed in commemoration of Jesus Christ's institution of the Eucharist during the Last Supper) reaches a high point at the Easter Vigil, and concludes with evening prayer at sundown on Easter Sunday.
Easter is the oldest Christian holiday and the most important feast of the ecclesiastical year held on the first Sunday that follows the first full moon of the Spring Equinox. The date therefore changes each year and falls on any day between March 22 and April 25. Easter has deep significance for Christians and represents rebirth and renewal.
Happy Easter!
This past weekend, members of the Jewish community started celebrating the festival of Passover. Reflected through storytelling and dining rituals of the Passover Seder, this holiday has been practiced by those observing the Jewish faith since the 5th century BCE and highlights the cultural values of resiliency and memory. We wish our Jewish members of the Bangor School Department community a Happy Passover, or Chag Sameach!

This and every month, through prevention, education, mandatory staff trainings and policies, the Bangor School Department works hard to support survivors of sexual assault and prevent all forms of violence.
If you or someone you know would benefit from local education and resources, we encourage you to explore The Maine Coalition Against Sexual Assault’s (MECASA) website: https://www.mecasa.org/
Students, parents, and staff can report any concerns surrounding sexual assault to a building administrator, the director of civil rights, or through the Bangor App.
