A Budget Built with Our Community in Mind

The Madawaska School Department is proud to present a fiscally responsible budget that prioritizes students while respecting taxpayers. By thoughtfully aligning staffing with current enrollment, the district has found meaningful savings without compromising the quality of education our students deserve.

Investments in facilities and instruction reflect the district's commitment to safe, well maintained schools and fairly compensated staff. These are the foundations of a strong school community.

Through continued partnerships with neighboring districts, Madawaska is maximizing every dollar by sharing key administrative roles and avoiding unnecessary duplication.

We invite you to join us on June 9th and vote. Your participation shapes the future of our schools.
