SCHOOL DAY

RSU 1 exists to provide education to the children and young people who reside within the unit. The essence of this education is primarily the teaching-learning setting with direct contact between teachers and students. It is the intent of the board that optimal instructional time for each age level within the student body is provided during the typical school day.

The "instructional day" is not considered to include co-curricular or extracurricular activities. Exceptions shall only be made with the approval of the Superintendent. The number of school days shall meet or exceed the state requirement and be set annually by this Board and be included in the school calendar.
