RSU 87 is in DESPERATE need of substitutes! Want an opportunity to make a difference in our kids' lives? Please consider filling out an application to be added to our district sub list! Substitute teachers play a far more important role in schools than simply covering classes, they ensure that our students have all of the resources they need to be successful.When schools are short staffed, everyone has to work together to cover the open periods.This takes resources away from others and impacts the quality education we strive to provide for our students. If you're interested in making a positive impact on the kids in our communities please consider signing up to sub today! Pay rates are $96 for regular substitutes and $101 for those with a college degree, and all substitutes will be required to be fingerprinted. Please fill out our substitute application located at rsu87.org, under the "Documents" tab, and return it to our Central Office, 44 Plymouth Road, Carmel, ME 04419, to get the process started!

The sign-up for our fall sports program (soccer, cross country and field hockey) is now open. Please fill out the form below if your child is interested.
