Cousins Island is closed off due to a fallen tree. We will keep an eye on that work and let you know if/when we can run buses to the island. Until then, Cousins Island residents can stay put. We have one other bus route on East Main that will re-route to avoid a downed wire. Other than that our buses should be set to make pickups on a two-hour delayed schedule throughout Yarmouth.
There will be a two hour delay to the start of school in Yarmouth today, October 17. Buses will run two hours later than normal. School will end at the regular time.
Yarmouth's Red Line bus pickup may be a running a few minutes late for YES and Rowe students this morning (Thursday, 9/26). Thank you for your patience.
Yarmouth High School has been named a 2019 National Blue Ribbon School of Excellence. YHS is one of only two high schools in Maine being recognized this year, and Yarmouth is the only district in the State with a school in 2018 (Y.E.S.) and 2019. Well done!
All four Yarmouth schools have received the Let’s Go! Smarter Lunchroom recognition for 2019.
This program honors school lunchrooms that are implementing best practices that reduce waste and increase participation, nudging students to make healthier choices.
Please remind your friends and neighbors it is illegal, and dangerous, to pass a stopped school bus with its flashing lights on.
