The 8th graders took a field trip to the Cole Transportation Museum on Friday, May 2nd. While they were there, they had the chance to meet with veterans who volunteer to tell young people about their life and travels serving in the military. It was an opportunity for these young adults to experience "living history" and learn a little bit about what it means to serve your country and your community.
They also took a walk down Maine's proverbial "memory lane" and learned more about the history of business and transportation in our region.
It was a great morning and we are proud of our 8th graders who were respectful, responsible, and caring while learning in the community.
Mrs. Madden’s first graders celebrated their moms today with a tea party! It is such a blessing to have such incredible women pouring love into these children!! Thank you so much ❤️

The staff had fun this week keeping the students on their toes! The staff participated in an underground spirit week and didn't we get some looks and questions from students. For any student still wondering our days were anything but a cup, wear black, choose a holiday, sports, and read it shirts! Staff had a blast and students seemed to enjoy guessing what was going on.
Vacation Notice
Mrs. Madden’s first graders went on a listening walk today! We heard all sorts of cool sounds, then we went back to our classroom and wrote and drew all about them. We even know what an onomatopoeia is! We had a great time thinking of sound words.
The book fair is coming!
There will no after school activities today, Tuesday, April 8th, due to weather.
