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!
Vine Street's Walking School Bus is canceled today, 4/14/25, due to weather.

April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month
The Bangor School Department takes a stand against sexual assault and domestic violence.
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.

Happy International Women's Day!
Today, we celebrate the incredible achievements of women throughout history and around the world. We recognize the challenges that women have faced and continue to face, and we renew our commitment to gender equality and women's rights. We stand in solidarity with all women and girls, and pledge to work together to create a world where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.
As a school department, we have a unique opportunity to support and empower the women in our community. We foster a culture of respect, inclusivity, and equality, where women pursue their dreams and achieve their full potential. We proudly provide resources and support for women who face obstacles or discrimination.
We are proud of the amazing women in our school department who are leaders, scholars, artists, athletes, and change-makers. Your voices and contributions are essential to our community, and we are grateful for everything you do.
Let us celebrate International Women's Day by recognizing the past achievements of women, but also by committing ourselves to work towards a brighter future, where women's voices are heard, and their contributions are valued.
