As part of Maine's plan for putting students first, the Maine Department of Education is focused on improving educational services, increasing student achievement, and creating efficiencies through creative regional partnerships.

We are working together with local districts to help facilitate regional and coordinated approaches to education, and to help focus conversations, visions, and goals that improve education for all Maine students.
