Sanford Middle School recently welcomed Boomer, the beloved mascot of the Sanford Mainers, for special assemblies with 5th and 6th graders!

It's a fun way to celebrate reading while connecting students to their hometown team!

7th graders at Sanford Middle School just wrapped up a learning unit on the Holocaust, and what a way to finish it. Students spent the past several weeks studying the Holocaust in both social studies and ELA, and capped it all off with a live performance by Russell Kaback whose show, 25044: A Musical Story of Resilience, tells the true story of his grandfather's survival. It was moving, it was powerful, and our kids were fully present for every minute of it.

This week Sanford Middle School celebrated Great Kindness Challenge Week, and 6th grader Alice Giberti showed us what it truly means to spread positivity!
Alice came up with her own idea: she wrote uplifting messages for students in every grade level with notes saying "you matter," "keep going," "don't give up," and "think of the good things." Then she walked through our building, delivering these encouraging words to students.
