Students at Fairmount School put their skills to the test by using real-world examples to practice multiplying decimals during Target Day. These mathematicians worked like pros—proving that math is everywhere, even in a shopping cart!
We’re so proud of their effort, accuracy, and teamwork as they showed how classroom learning connects to everyday life.

Bangor High School Supports Dexter Regional High School! Hello, Bangor community! Dexter Regional High School has been selected by T-moblie as one of the top 25 finalists from over 2,000 schools across the country—and they’re the only school representing Maine! This is a fantastic opportunity for our county and our state, as Dexter has a chance to win a $1 million grand prize that would benefit not only the school but also their entire community and beyond.

As fellow Mainers, it's important to come together and support one another. A win for Dexter means new turf, lights, and updated facilities, creating a safer environment for their athletes and a central gathering place for their community to cheer on their students. Imagine what our city would be like without Cameron Stadium and all of the opportunities that it has given our students.

Dexter is currently in third place, and they need our votes to rise to the top! You can vote every day until October 24th. Let’s rally around Dexter Regional High School and show our support. Every vote makes a difference!

Vote here: [www.VoteDexter.com]

Good luck, Dexter! Let’s bring this home for Maine! #VoteDexter #MaineStrong #WeAreBangor
