A MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL

Dear Maine East Families:

On behalf of the faculty and staff of Maine East High School, I want to encourage you to attend two special events coming up: Meet the Teacher Night on Thursday, August 31st and Maine East Ribbon Cutting Ceremony on Wednesday, September 6th.  

Meet the Teacher Night will be held on Thursday, August 31st at 6:00 p.m. This experience enables you to follow your student’s class schedule, to meet their teachers and to gain a sense of what their school day is like. Teachers will share what students are doing in classes this year, along with some advice about what you can do to help your child be successful in each class. Please note the following details:

Our evening will begin at 6:00 p.m. in the auditorium with a brief informational session regarding some important tips to support your student at Maine East.

Please park in the east or front parking lot, and enter through Door 1 (main entrance) or Door 2 (auditorium). After the informational session, you will have the opportunity to walk your student’s schedule and meet their teachers from 6:30 p.m. - 8:30 p.m. Click here for additional information
