MSAD #45

Our UMPI teacher education volunteers accompanied first graders and Halina Herzog (21st Century teacher) on a trip to the bank to cash a check and get coins, which they then took to the store to spend. They have been studying coin amounts, adding and subtracting.

     

Congratulations to senior Maegan Fitzpatrick, the May student of the month at WDHS. Maegan's senior year has been a busy one!  She has stepped out to do many different things this year including yearbook sales, volunteering to help the NHS members put together a County-wide conference, and manager for both the basketball and baseball teams.  The past 2 years she has been a student representative on the MPA Advisory Committee.  Many of us see her working at the Country Farms Market downtown.  She is anxious to begin her college life next year at Immaculata University in PA. Maegan is an avid reader and frequent visitor to the library where she enjoys reading the classics.

The 21st After School Program students went to the Circus on Friday! The Shriners gave the group free tickets to the show and the program provided a snack for all. The students had so much fun!  The group also went to the Tri Community recycling and sanitary landfill in Fort Fairfield on Thursday where students earned money for the program by picking up trash from the grounds. Students from the middle school Homework Haven progam also went to help! Everyone did such a great job! It was nice to see them take on a community project with big smiles on their faces and showing a great deal of enthusiasm! An ice cream sundae party will be held later this month to celebrate their hard work. 

 

Congratulations to Daniel Roy who received his Eagle Scout Award on Saturday, May 4.  His project involved renovating a long forgotten cemetary in Wade known as the Randall Cemetary.  The troop gifted Daniel with an enrollment in the National Eagle Scout Association.  He presented father and mother pins to his parents and a mentor pin to Stacy Skinner.  Great accomplishment, Daniel!
