Today, we pause to honor and thank all who have served our country — and the families who have supported them along the way.

To our students, staff, alumni, and parents who are veterans or currently serving, your courage and commitment inspire our entire community. We are deeply grateful for your service and sacrifice, and we recognize the strength it takes not only to serve but also to support those who do.

Thank you for your example of leadership, dedication, and resilience.

What a whirlwind start to the semester! In just one week, our new and returning Mariners have already accomplished so much:

✅ New and Returning Student Move-In
✅ Monomoy Races & The Gauntlet Challenge
✅ Academic Orientation
✅ Women's Soccer and Volleyball Wins
✅ TSSOM Christening Ceremony
✅ First Week of Classes
✅ Acadia Trip

From move in, to racing across the water, starting classes, winning athletic events, celebrating the christening of the Training Ship State of Maine, and a successful First Year Student trip to Acadia (many naps were taken), the school year has kicked off with a busy start.

We’re so proud of our students for diving right in and making the most of their first week. Here’s to the year ahead! 💙⚓️
