As I wrap up my fourth year as your Superintendent, I am reflecting on how thankful I am to be a part of RSU 10. I am proud of our District and how hard all of our staff are working to continue our quest to do better for our students. Everyday I see staff and students striking that balance between being healthy and safe and being present in-person and participating virtually. What a challenge this has been for all of us! As we continue our work to be better with remote learning we also are seeking ways to allow students to be in-person learning for more time and have more students move from fully remote to in-person. This is being considered by each school individually. PLEASE continue following our guidelines to stay healthy and safe! Help us keep Oxford County Green!! Happy Thanksgiving! Deb Alden

This afternoon we received a report of a slight odor of propane outside of Meroby Elementary School. There was no smell of propane in the school. Out of an abundance of caution the building was evacuated and 911 was called. The tank was shut off to the building and the propane service company was called. Mexico Fire Department secured the scene. Using meters they checked for gas in the building and found none. The propane service company found a small leak in a safety overflow regulator on one of the outside tanks. The regulator will be replaced this evening and the building, after being rechecked by the propane service company, should be ready for school tomorrow. If the valve replacement becomes an issue that may affect school tomorrow at this building you will be notified. Scott Holmes, Director Buildings, Grounds & Transportation
