Good morning this is James Tager, Superintendent of the Bangor School Department.
Due to icy road conditions, the Bangor School Department will have a two-hour delay for all schools on January 25, 2024. This delay will help to ensure the safety of our students and staff during the morning commute.
A limerick to brighten your day
There once was a school day so gray,
With icy roads causing delay.
For two hours we'd wait,
As ice sealed our fate,
In class, we’ll eventually find our way.
Join us for the 17th annual Crosstown Hoops this Friday, 1/26/24, from 3:00 - 8:00 PM in the Bangor High School Gymnasium: Admission is $3 / person or $10 / Family and is good for all four games! Concessions to benefit the Cohen Boosters. Come cheer on your Cohen Eagles and Doughty Bulldogs!
Due to the winter weather forecast for this afternoon, January 16, 2024, there will be no after-school activities after regular school dismissal. Buses will depart from BHS at 2 pm. Middle Schools at 2:30 pm and PreK-5 School at 3 pm.
Happy MLK Jr. Day. Every year, MLK Jr. Day reminds us of our commitment to public service, finding remedies to injustice, and commitment to all members of our community.

The Bangor School Committee Meeting scheduled for January 10, 2024, has been cancelled due to the impending winter storm.
Hello, this is James Tager, Superintendent of the Bangor School Department, with a winter weather haiku and an important message for families.
Schools hushed, doors closed,
Snow's decree, a day of rest,
Kids play, laughter flows.
Due to the most recent National Weather Service forecast for tomorrow, Wednesday, January 10, 2024 of a mixed precipitation winter storm with strong winds that may cause power outages throughout the Greater Bangor Region, I have decided to call a snow day. All BSD student activities as well as the School Committee Meeting scheduled for Wednesday are cancelled.
For the safety of everyone in the BSD community and to give families time to make plans for tomorrow, I feel that making a decision tonight is best.
Be safe.
There is no Monday morning (1.8.24) Orchestra at Cohen due to teacher illness.
The next Bangor School Committee meeting will be held in the BHS Library on January 10, 2024. Please enter through the Peakes Auditorium entrance. The agenda and other materials for the meeting can be found at the following link https://www.bangorschools.net/page/school-committee
