Second graders at Dike-Newell School are our most recent Law Enforcement Against Drugs (LEAD) program graduates. Way to go!
Bath Middle School 8th Grade students participated in Bath Tech Step Up Day to see future opportunities and programming. This marks the start of the high school transition process!
Last week, 5th graders at Woolwich Central School spent a day at GMRI (Gulf of Maine Research Institute). Not only did the class represent our community beautifully, they were able to have a hands-on learning experience off campus. Students explored scientific research in an interactive manner, while learning from actual scientists. They were challenged to identify plankton and other small creatures using microscopes, as well as to virtually dissect black sea bass. They even handled live lobsters! We are grateful to Bath Savings, BIW, and Reny's for sponsoring GMRI's LabVenture, which is why we were able to have this experience.
Huge congratulations to our 200 Free Relay team who shattered the STATE RECORD in the event on Friday evening with a time of 1:27.14!
Great job to the relay team of Seniors Gaffney McDonough, Sawyer Wright, David Mitchell and Junior Brady Chubbuck! Amazing work by these four athletes and the rest of the program this evening.

Learning time takes many forms at Fisher-Mitchell School!
Last week, 4th Grade students at Fisher-Mitchell school had a special "graduation" to celebrate completing the 10 week L.E.A.D. (Law Enforcement Against Drugs & Violence) program. Students were acknowledged for their hard work and learning by Bath PD. It was a great experience to have Deputy Chief Small & Officer Tringali teaching this program. We are very thankful for their work!
This week sixth graders at Woolwich Central School started their participation in the L.E.A.D. (Law Enforcement Against Drugs & Violence) program. We welcomed Sagadahoc Sheriff's Office Deputies Chad Carleton, and Mark Anderson who are running the sessions. L.E.A.D. is a 10-week program that focuses on: goal setting, decision-making, effective communication, conflict resolution, pro-social bonding, and bullying prevention.
Bath Middle School is happy to host the Maine Biolab this week! The Maine Mobile BIOLAB is a state-of-the-art mobile science lab that will meet students where they live and learn and engage them in the life sciences and engineering.
Culinary Cafe kicked off their first cafe of the year. We served approximately 24 people and the food was delicious!
Students at Fisher-Mitchell School recently completed the Sticking Together Challenge. Students received tokens from staff when behaviors that demonstrated kindness, community, etc. were shown. Each token translated into a color sticker to be added to the mosaic.
Dike-Newell students have been participating in Hour of Code during library classes this week as well as having a special library visit to practice programming Bee-Bots. Hour of Code is a free introduction to computer science through fun activities and videos for learners of all skill levels. Schools around the world join the Hour of Code movement as part of Computer Science Education Week. Students previewed two of the many activities available on the Hour of Code website and learned how they could access this site at school as well as at home. During the special Bee-Bot library visit, Ms. Hardman, with the help of second grade Coding Club members, taught students how to program the Bee-Bots. They then visited various stations for Bee-Bot challenges.
Students at PES had "snow" much fun earlier this week!
Dike-Newell Pre-K students were treated to a special guest reader - RSU 1's Jake Rothwell, Technology Support Specialist, who is also a Pre-K dad. Thanks for spending time with our students, Jake!
The second round of Connections classes started yesterday at BMS. One of the new class offerings is "Whittle Wonders" - a carving class for beginners. Starting with soap carving progressing into whittling wood. These students had so much fun!
Terrific night on the basketball courts for our Shipbuilders! 🏀
At home - Coach Beth Carlton gets her first win in charge of the Shipbuilders in a decisive win over Waterville! The JV team played terrific as well in a dominant win!

Woolwich Central School had a great week celebrating their "Wildcat Pride!"
Bath Tech Culinary Arts served lunch to students from Woolwich Central School this week. The menu consisted of tacos and chicken tenders. This activity helped Bath Tech students prepare for upcoming Culinary Cafe dates and Woolwich students enjoyed eating out at a "restaurant".
Bath Tech Culinary Arts students are busy preparing for the SkillsUSA competition.
Students at Woolwich Central School had the opportunity to practice their literacy skills using either their "reading glasses" or a "read-o-phone." While the glasses may not have lenses, once students put them on, they are able to focus better on their reading. The read-o-phone (a hollow piece of pipe) allows students to hear their own voice as they read the text aloud.
