Our garden beds are absolutely bursting with fresh veggies! This week, students are diving into hands-on cooking by making delicious salsa and pesto using our very own garden produce.
We're also thrilled to share that our students were recently featured as guests on WABI TV 5's garden segment! It was a fantastic opportunity to showcase their hard work and passion for gardening.
Make sure to check out our other garden posts this week!

Instagram just launched a new Map feature that lets teens share their real-time location with friends and followers. While it’s off by default, a few taps can reveal sensitive places like their school or home. Learn how this feature works, why it matters for your child’s privacy, and what steps parents can take to keep teens safe online.

A huge shout-out to the Doughty Boosters for kicking off our Guest Lunch Server Program for the 2025-26 school year! The guest lunch server program introduces middle school students to careers and community members who support local education. Through this initiative, students have the opportunity to engage with professionals from various fields, learn about different career paths, and gain valuable insights into the importance of community involvement. We are excited to see our students interact with these role models, fostering a sense of responsibility and encouraging them to envision their futures. Thank you, Doughty Boosters, for your dedication and supporting this program! #WeAreBangor


The first meeting of the year is tonight at 7 PM in the Council Chambers.
