If Waterville Public Schools are cancelled during the day due to weather, there are no adult education classes at the Waterville site.
If RSU 18/Messalonskee Public Schools are cancelled during the day due to weather, there are no adult education classes at the Messalonskee site.
If a storm should start during the day, we will make the decision to cancel classes by 4:00 p.m. The announcement will be made on our web page, Facebook page, and there will be a voice message on our telephone. Students will receive an email with information regarding their class. As is always the case, the student must use his/her own judgement whether to venture out or not.
The Waterville Public Schools Superintendent will make the announcement of a delay and send an email out to all staff & K-12 learners that there is a delay.
- 1 Hour Delays do not affect our Adult Education schedule as our classes are not scheduled to start until 9:00am.
- If there is a 2-hour delay, we will delay all courses 1 hour to match up with the K-12 schedule of start of classes. Example: 2 hour delay means that our first class will start at 10:00 instead of 9:00.

We have several grants which make many of our courses self supporting.

This revenue allows us to offer a great variety of academic and enrichment courses to our communities.
