As the new school year begins this week, Islesboro Public Safety reminds all residents to use extra caution on our roads and in our community spaces. Morning and afternoon traffic will increase around the school zone, bus stops, and the ferry terminal. Please reduce speed, stay alert for children walking or biking, and avoid distracted driving.

Parents and students are encouraged to give themselves extra time in the mornings, use designated drop‑off areas, and follow all directions from school staff. Islanders should also expect more pedestrian activity throughout the day as students travel between school, home, and after‑school programs.

Thank you for helping keep our students safe and supporting a smooth start to the school year.

Go Eagles!!!!

Yesterday, while putting cones out where wires are down people were either standing under wires that were under tension or walking on the wires laying on the road. Please don’t do that. That could go seriously wrong really quick. That was added work on top of the work we already had going. No line is safe to touch and that could put an end to your day really fast. Please let public safety responders do their work. Thank you ~Fred
