🚒 Special Visitors at Margaret Chase Smith Elementary! 🚒

Our Kindergarten and Pre-K students had a blast learning about fire safety from the Sanford Fire Department.

The kids learned important skills like "stop, drop, and roll" and what to do when they hear a smoke alarm. The highlight? Getting up close to see the firefighters' gear and explore a real fire truck!

A huge thank you to our local firefighters for making safety education so fun and memorable for our youngest students. 🔥👨‍🚒

🏈 Flex Time Fun! 🎨

Sanford Middle School 8th graders are loving their Wednesday and Friday Flex sessions! Students get to choose from an amazing variety of activities including flag football, board games, arts and crafts, cross stitching, trail walking, kickball, and basketball.

It's been wonderful watching students explore their interests and try new things in a low-pressure environment. They'll stick with their chosen activity through the end of the first quarter, then have the opportunity to switch it up and try something new!
