The @portlandpublic Schools’ Nature Program gives young learners opportunities to explore the outdoors, build relationships, and develop important skills that help prepare them for school. For seven years, Dedham School’s Mountain Biking Team has helped middle school students build biking skills, explore the outdoors, and strengthen friendships through teamwork and adventure. The Maine DOE, in collaboration with the Maine DHHS Office of Child and Family Services, is offering Young Mathematicians, a FREE professional learning opportunity for early care and education professionals serving children ages 3–6. From the opening of the Portland School for the Deaf in 1876 to today’s statewide services through the Maine Educational Center for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing (MECDHH)/Governor Baxter School for the Deaf (GBSD) @mecdhh.gbsd , Maine’s Deaf education community has spent 150 years helping Deaf and Hard of Hearing children learn, connect, and thrive. Congratulations to Keith Kelley of Nokomis Middle School in RSU 19 and Nicole Lesperance of Mt. Blue Regional School District (RSU 9), recipients of the 2026 ACTEM ACHIEVE Award! Congratulations to Gretchen Livingston, the 2027 Maine Teacher of the Year! Today, the Maine Department of Education and Educate Maine (@educate_maine) announced Gretchen Livingston, a Spanish teacher at Cony Middle and High School (@conymshsrams) in the Augusta School Department, as the 2027 Maine Teacher of the Year! A resounding CRUNCH! 🍎 Today is the last day to register with early bird pricing for the 16th Annual Maine PBIS Conference!
