Don’t miss a thing about District 63! Connect with us online and stay in the loop and up-to-date on news, events, and key information.

Explore our website. 
Here you’ll find District and school web pages encompassing a wide range of information and resources: announcements, news, calendars, forms, teacher web pages, school newsletters, the District’s Parent Portal, and more. Looking for a specific school website? Check the top of this page for the “Schools” drop-down box. If you need to translate the website, click the floating button that says "English" for a list of languages.

Watch for e-news. 
All D63 families are automatically included in the e-news lists for their school and the District.   Our East Maine Update e-newsletter goes out every other Friday. 

Review our 63 Success print newsletter. 
This is mailed to all addresses in the District twice a year.

District and school social media pages inform parents, staff, and community members about our achievements, events, and activities. We welcome comments and feedback  -- but please note that posts containing profanity and personal insults against any individual -- as well as those that violate the privacy of others or any social media platform's Statement of Rights and Responsibilities -- will be deleted. Examples include unauthorized commercial solicitations; posts that bully, intimidate, or harass; content that is hateful, threatening, pornographic, uses insensitive or hateful language or contains violence; or any post that is unlawful, misleading, malicious, or discriminatory. In addition, the District reserves the right to delete any comment that includes a specific student's name. If more than one post by the same individual must be deleted, the District reserves the right to block that individual from the page.
