Dear Deering Community,

We hope you've had the opportunity to read the superintendent's letter, which can be found on the Portland public schools website. If not, please take a moment to review the letter since it includes lots of great information and details.

Deering will resume classes as scheduled on Monday, October 30th. In these trying times when our state joins Lewiston in mourning a tragic situation, we eagerly anticipate reuniting with all our students. We miss being together, and we are truly grateful for your patience and understanding as we navigate the path to ensure everyone's safety while refocusing on our core mission of teaching and learning. Administration, counselors, and social workers have plans in place to support students and staff. 

We look forward to seeing you on Monday!
