MSAD 55 Safe Schools/ Healthy Students

Serving the families and schools of Baldwin, Cornish, Hiram, Parsonsfield, and Porter

Welcome!
What we do....

The MSAD 55 Safe Schools-Healthy Students Initiative is a federally funded, 3-year intervention program designed to help create safer schools and promote healthy living in our community.  

The project  involves a comprehensive bullying prevention program, opportunities for students to become more involved in community activities, improved mental health services, alcohol and drug prevention and education, and improvement of safety of school facilities. The funding is also be used to hire a school resource officer and additional counselors for the district and promoting positive cooperation between the schools and families served by our program. In addition to school based programs we also provide mental health services for the families of our area and have expanded our services for children prior to kindergarten. The plan takes into account that family involvement is crucial to the success of any program and all activities are designed to promote participation by parents.

Our goal....
The goal of the MSAD 55 Safe Schools-Healthy Students is to change our schools and our community by working together to develop programs to reduce violence and promote healthy living. We hope that our programs will help students succeed in school and thrive in life after graduation.
