The Oyster River School Board held its first meeting in the ORMS Concert Hall this week. Future school board meetings will usually be at the Middle School.

REACH summer camps at Mast Way School in cooperation between ORCSD and Durham Park & Rec have 2 weeks remaining and are serving over 100 students per week.
The School Board approved school breakfast and lunch prices for the 2022-2023 school year. So far, the USDA is not funding school meals for all students as they have the last 2 school years. Oyster River’s outstanding School Nutrition Department led by Doris Demers served over 271,000 meals in the 2021-2022 school year. School Nutrition will be bringing back more lunch options and expanding menus for students this fall. Families that may be eligible for free or reduced-price breakfast and lunch are encouraged to register now for the fall. Go to family.titank12.com and click on “Apply for Meals Today” to register. The application is confidential and only seen by the School Nutrition Director.
The Grand Opening ceremony for the Oyster River Middle School Building will be August 23 from 11:00-1:00. The entire community is invited.
ORCSD is evaluating the possibility of adding electric school buses to our fleet. The district usually replaces 1 or 2 full-size buses each year.
