โ๏ธ 6th grade had a fantastic trip to Echo Lake today! It was the perfect day for swimming, relaxing, and enjoying time together outdoors.
Our students represented our school โ and our state โ incredibly well. They were appreciative, respectful, and well-behaved throughout the entire trip, and we are so proud of them.
We wrapped up the day with a stop at Blueberry Hill for ice cream! ๐ฆ
A special thank you to our lifeguard and social studies teacher, Mrs. Hall, and to our reading teacher and ice cream organizer, Mrs. Anderson, for helping make this memorable day possible!

Our first graders kept a favorite end-of-year tradition alive by walking to Knowlton Park!
After enjoying a sunny picnic lunch, they headed back to school to cool off and play in the sprinklers. What a perfect way to celebrate wrapping up another fantastic school year! ๐๐

๐ ๏ธ Big Shoutout & Thank You! ๐ชต
We want to extend a massive thank you to our amazing after-school site coordinator, Holly Williams, and her husband, Warren! ๐
They recently teamed up with some of our fantastic after-school students to build a much-needed shed extension. This awesome new space will house our mower, w**d whacker, and the new tools we purchased for our outdoor classrooms last year, thanks to our generous Friends of Acadia grant! ๐ฒโจ
We are also super proud of these students for rolling up their sleeves, learning hands-on skills, and working together to improve our program space.
Check out these rockstars in action! ๐ธ๐

Last week, EEMS hosted our final Tasting Table of the year, celebrating Juneโs Maine Harvest of the Month: Seaw**d! ๐
We were thrilled to welcome our neighbors from Maine Coast Sea Vegetables, who set up an awesome station during lunch. Our students got to learn all about all of our local seaw**d, check out massive pieces of real sugar kelp, andโthe best partโsample some delicious "Kelp Krunch" seaw**d bites! ๐๐
A huge thank you to Maine Coast Sea Vegetables for sharing their time, knowledge, and tasty treats with us. And a giant shoutout to all of our adventurous eaters this year! See you next fall for more local flavor adventures! ๐ซโค๏ธ
