Store will be open until midnight next Sunday.
Orders will arrive at the TMS office, and we will distribute to students unless otherwise notified. Please email msoffice@sad44.org if you would like your order held for parent pick-up.

This evening at 5pm we will be conducting a test of the emergency alert system for MSAD44. We are rebuilding the data base from scratch to hopefully get all of the kinks worked out. Your students were given a paper form we ask you to fill out and return tomorrow please to help us identify who this is and is not working for. We are also posting the same information and a picture of the form to our websites and Facebook pages to try and make sure we are getting the word out to all families and to see if the system is working properly. If you do not receive a call, text, and email this evening, and you believe you should, please contact your school office in the morning.
Thank you for your patience through this process.
