Scarborough High School
September 14, 2025
Dear SHS Families and Students:
To give us space to come together as a community and support one another appropriately, we will not be running a typical school schedule or academic day tomorrow, Monday Sept. 15. There will be no regular classes or vocational (WRVC/PATHS) programming for Scarborough High School students.
We welcome high school students to the school beginning at 10 am, for anyone who wants to come. The day is being intentionally designed for students and staff to come together for support as needed; regular classes will not be held and daily attendance will not be taken at the high school.
Buses will be scheduled to pick up high school students up 2 hours later than usual, and bus shuttles home will be available at 11am, 12pm, 1pm, or the usual end of day 2:25pm bus run.
Afterschool activities will take place as scheduled, for those students who choose to participate. There is no expectation that a student must be at school tomorrow to go to an afterschool event; no consequence will be given to anyone missing a practice or game.
We will be engaging the help of counselors from regional partners to ensure support is available for any students or staff who may need it. There will be opportunities for a variety of supports: individual counseling, small groups counseling, and common space activity opportunities for students to assemble together. Please let us know if your child may need additional support at home.
As for the rest of the week, we are anticipating the need for another 2 hour delay for High School only on Tuesday, following an academic schedule. More specific information will be communicated late Monday afternoon.
We will share details about memorial arrangements and other opportunities to honor Mr. Brown as they become available.
Below is the schedule. Thank you for keeping Mr. Brown’s family and our school community in your thoughts.
