Margaret Chase Smith students are focusing on social skills in our upper elementary classrooms. In third grade this looks like thinking about how to include others using empathy and kindness.

Students are also thinking about how to grow their confidence in and out of school and with peers. In 4th grade they are talking about HOW we communicate. This means both our tone of voice and our body language.

Yesterday, our school community came together in many different ways to honor our veterans, and today we continue to celebrate and remember those who have served.

Carl J. Lamb Elementary hosted their 3rd Annual Veterans Day Celebration in the cafeteria, where each grade performed songs for the veterans in attendance.

Our talented Sanford Pride chorus students took their gift of music to Pinnacle Health and Rehab in Sanford, where they sang for veterans and brightened their day. These thoughtful students also created handmade cards and letters to show their appreciation and let our veterans know they are remembered and valued.

Margaret Chase Smith School welcomed veterans to their 4th Annual Breakfast with Veterans in the gymnasium.

Thank you to all the veterans who joined us yesterday and to all who have served!

🚒 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. 🔥👨‍🚒
