Virtual Office Hours

The Maine Department of Education is working to support educators who are providing distance learning to Maine students.

The MDOE is conducting virtual office hours with Content Specialists to support educators during extended remote learning. During these meetings, MDOE specialists will be available to provide support and guidance regarding distance learning and school supports, as well as to facilitate networking and resource sharing between educators.

The virtual office hours have space limitations and are on a first come-first served basis. The schedules are regularly updated and can be found on the MDOE site.

It's hard to believe it's time to get ready for the new school year. As you prepare for returning students, you should also think about preparing for your own financial future.

Supplemental retirement plans offered in your district are one of the best places for you to set aside money for your future. Why participate?

• Earnings in the account grow tax-deferred. • You determine how much you want deducted from your paycheck – which you can change at your convenience. • The contributions you make are saved through convenient, automatic payroll deductions – you won’t even miss them. • Any contributions you make are always 100% vested –so the money you save is always yours.
