OCSU Faculty, Staff, Families and Students;
Please be aware that Monday, April 8, 2024 will be an Early Release Day for the staff and students of OCSU (Towns of Albany, Barton, Brownington, Glover, Irasburg, Orleans and Westmore) so that they may have the opportunity to witness the Solar Eclipse with their families and friends! We will follow our normal early release times for each school.
If you have questions, please call your child's school building administrator for details on release times.
The OCSU Faculty and Staff will remain at school until 1:00 p.m. on April 8th to ensure all children have been picked up by parents, walked safely home or have boarded our buses.
We wish everyone a safe afternoon! Enjoy this once in a lifetime experience!
I want to publicly thank our LRUEMS Board, LRUHS Board and OCSU Board for providing this option for staff, students and families!
Take Care! Ms. Chamberlin

K-8 Reconfiguration Data Collection
Dear Orleans Central Supervisory Union Parents and Guardians;
The Lake Region Elementary Middle School District Board is researching the possibility of implementing a grade band reconfiguration across our six K-8 schools for next year (August 2024).
This process requires the review of data and various models in order to make a well-informed decision. If you want to follow the discussion, please go to the OCSU.org website and under the Board Option you will find board meeting agendas and minutes.
One of the data points that must be collected is feedback and input from our families. If you have or will have a child(ren) in one of our K-8 schools during the 2024-2025 school year (from the towns of Albany, Barton, Brownington, Glover, Irasburg, Orleans and Westmore), please take a few minutes to complete this online survey.
PLEASE use this link: https://forms.gle/9FCsmuvHJHG3hX6A9
If you are unable to complete it electronically, please stop in at one of our school’s offices or the Central Office on 130 Kinsey Road in Barton to fill out a paper copy.
We appreciate your time and effort in this process.
We need to collect all feedback and input from this survey by Wednesday, February 7th at 4:00 p.m.
If you need assistance, feel free to contact any of the principal offices or call my office at 802-525-1204.

Congratulations to our Pups and Wolves of the week for the past two weeks! These students were kind and accepting of others! Missing from photo is Lexi. Congratulations to her as well! Keep up the hard work everyone!
