The William S. Cohen School Rocket Club has again blasted off into action! For many years Mr. Bilancia has offered this experience to our students. This year the club is meeting for four sessions on Tuesday afternoons. Students in the Rocket Club learn the basics of model rocketry, prepare their rockets for flights and enjoy going outside to watch their rockets fly to the sky! We are pleased to offer this experience to Cohen students again this year! #WeAreBangor

Thank you so much for joining us at Vine Street School on Thursday evening for our PTO Fall Festival and Math PEAK Night! Seeing our school community come together, smile, laugh, and enjoy the festivities was truly the absolute highlight of my week.

It was incredible watching families participate in the games, dance to the music, enjoy the activities, and of course a special shout-out goes to all the families who joined in on the Math PEAK Bingo! Your enthusiasm and participation made the game an absolute blast and a huge success.

Events like this are only possible because of our amazing community. Thank you for your continued support, your energy, and for making the evening so memorable for our students. See some great photos below showcasing the fun everyone had!

Recently, JFDS 7th graders, who are reading A Long Walk to Water, ran a relay around the school carrying buckets of water to experience what it's like for people who walk long distances every day for clean water. It was a fun, hands-on way to build empathy and bring the book to life! Thanks to Mrs. Bridges, Mrs. Lowe, & Mrs. Gunnell for a fun activity!

In this episode of Beyond the Bell, hosts Dr. Marie Robinson, Superintendent of the Bangor School Department, and School Committee Member Sara Luciano sit down with Bangor High School Best Buddies student leaders Lydia, Brennan, and Laci.

Together, they discuss how Best Buddies fosters meaningful friendships and creates opportunities for inclusion for students with and without intellectual and developmental disabilities. The students share their personal journeys in the program, reflect on their experiences attending the Best Buddies International Leadership Conference, and explain how those experiences have inspired them to expand opportunities for belonging at Bangor High School.

Join us for an inspiring conversation about inclusion, student leadership, and the positive impact that happens when everyone has a place to belong.

Happy Custodian Appreciation Day!

Today, we celebrate the incredible custodians who do so much more than keep our schools clean, safe, and welcoming.

Our custodial staff are often among the first to arrive and the last to leave, but their impact reaches far beyond maintaining our buildings. They build relationships with students, lend a helping hand when needed, and bring joy to our school communities in countless ways. Whether they're joining in on spirit weeks, participating in theme days, or stepping into a mascot costume to make students smile, they help create the positive and caring school culture that makes Bangor schools special.

Thank you for the pride you take in your work, your dedication to our students and staff, and the kindness you bring to our schools every day. Your contributions make a difference in ways both seen and unseen.

Please join us in thanking our amazing custodial team for all they do!

We appreciate you today and every day.
