Want to work for the York School Department?
We are hoping to fill every position available in York Schools for the start of the 2023/24 school year. Currently, we have a dozen unfilled jobs. Among the listings are those for Ed Techs in special education; a part-time English teacher for non-native English speakers; a part-time art teacher; teacher and nurse substitutes; a lunch and recess monitor; and a soccer coach.
To review the job descriptions, go to www.schoolspring.com and search on “York School Department” in “Maine.” We would appreciate you spreading the word about our needs to those who may be interested.
Thank you!

Now one month in, Superintendent Tim Doak hosted a BBQ to thank those York School Department employees working throughout the summer. York High School Co-principals Amanda Suttie and Mike Bennett assist on the grills. We'd also like to thank the weather for its cooperation!

2023-2024 Student Transportation Plan Survey
August 1, 2023
We hope you are enjoying your summer break. Our staff is working hard behind the scenes to prepare for the start of the school year. One of the areas we need your help is by getting the necessary information to determine bus transportation routes. In order to set these routes, please complete this brief survey: https://bit.ly/3OF4fQZ. Ledgemere needs your input no later than this Sunday, August 6th.
We are asking for this information for EACH student who rides the bus. That could mean that whether your child rides every day, only in the mornings or afternoons, or only between sports seasons, we'd still like you to complete a survey for them.
Your information will help establish the need for busing to and from the York School Department schools and help improve your child’s safety, comfort, and overall experience.
Transportation resources can be found on the York Schools website at https://www.yorkschools.org/page/transportation.
Enjoy the last few weeks of the summer break. We look forward to a strong start to the school year.
Thank you!

What a great day for our Special Olympian students last week! After being canceled for many years due to COVID, the games resumed on a beautiful sunny day! The school rallied to send students off with posters and cheers and hallways lined with clapping students. The staff who went with them said to the school, “thank you all so much for the amazing, energetic, colorful, thoughtful rally you gave our athletes! You gave them confidence to start their day. They had a great time and rocked the games! We came home with lots of ribbons and smiles.” Well done, everyone!
The Chorus Concert on May 17 was a hit! Congratulations to everyone, and thank you Mrs. Etter!
