Margaret Chase Smith Students had a blast during its recent Wellness Fair, which was packed with engaging and hands-on activities that promoted health, safety, and social-emotional learning. They explored a variety of exciting sessions, including fire safety demonstrations, cosmetology tips, and interactive presentations from JMG, our School Resource Officer, and localEMTs. The smoothie bike was a big hit, letting students pedal their way to a healthy treat, while others enjoyed planting seeds, learning about bike safety, and participating in creative SEL activities.

Did you know that bobcats hunt rabbits, rats, deer and sheep? Panthers can have spots and can be tan. Mrs. Morrison's class is learning about all the animals in The Green Fern Zoo in their CKLA unit.

📚✏️ THANK YOU to all the families who joined us for our Kindergarten Exploration Event last Thursday! We were thrilled to welcome over 50 families across Carl J. Lamb, Margaret Chase Smith, and Sanford Pride Elementary Schools. It was wonderful seeing our future kindergarteners exploring classrooms, meeting teachers, and getting comfortable in their new schools! The smiles and excitement were contagious! 📣 REMINDER: If you couldn't make it to the event, it's not too late to register your child for kindergarten for the 2025-2026 school year!

This week, we celebrate our incredible Assistant Principal, Ms. McGuckin, for her dedication, leadership, and unwavering support of our students, staff, and families. Whether helping with daily routines at drop off or cheering on student successes, her presence makes a meaningful impact across our school community. We’re grateful for all she does to help our school thrive!
