Dear Parent or Guardian,

Mary Snow School was placed in Hold from 2:02 to 2:25 due to a student that became dysregulated in the hallway. As a precaution, students and staff were asked to remain in their classrooms in order to keep the hallways empty. Classroom learning continued throughout the Hold, and all school operations have returned to normal.

The safety and well-being of your child is our top priority. We will continue to keep you informed about important concerns at our school.

What is a Hold Action? The Hold Action is used when the hallways in the school need to remain clear due to a situation in the school. Classroom learning will still take place as normal during a Hold, but students may not be able to change classes until after the Hold has been lifted.

Thank you,
Kristi Lord
Principal

Dear Bangor School Department Families, Staff, and Community Members,

As part of our ongoing facilities planning process, the Strategic Planning Committee is seeking feedback from our community as we work to evaluate the current and future needs of our schools.

During recent community listening sessions, we presented information about the challenges and opportunities facing our school facilities. We encourage everyone to review the presentation, which can be accessed here:

Listening Session Presentation: https://aptg.co/lB7VQQ

Within the presentation, you will find both a direct link and a QR code that will take you to a community survey. We value your perspective and encourage you to take a few moments to share your thoughts. Your feedback is an important part of this process and will help inform the committee's recommendations as we plan for the future of Bangor's schools.

The survey will remain open through September 10, 2026. We encourage you to participate before the deadline to ensure your voice is included in this important community conversation.

Thank you for your continued support of the Bangor School Department.
