The M.L. Day Pride Report

Dear Friends and Families of MLD,

What a beautiful September it has been—sunny skies and crisp mornings have made every day feel extra special at MLD! Our recent Community Meeting was a true highlight, with a packed house of families and friends. We opened with an inspiring performance of a welcoming song rooted in Nigerian culture, setting a joyful and inclusive tone for the gathering. We also celebrated the Noble family for volunteering to hunt for playground balls on the weekend - with the PTO presenting our school community with a batch of new soccer balls!

We were thrilled to recognize 47 students with P.R.I.D.E. Awards this month for showing perseverance, respect, responsibility, integrity, dedication, and engaging in learning—what an incredible start to the year!

A special shout-out goes to third grader Luis Rosa-Spear, our Best Buddies event coordinator. Over the summer, Luis organized a fundraiser that brought in more than $800 for our chapter, Luis was recognized today by the O.O.B. Fire and Rescue as well as the President of the Maine State Best Buddies chapter. His dedication and leadership embody the spirit of friendship and dedication we value so deeply.

Thank you to everyone who continues to make our school community so vibrant and inspiring!

Enjoy this beautiful weekend!

A BIG Thank You to Craig & Tabetha Barden of Bruce's Auto Service for their generous donation of water, tissues and snack to the students of Mildred L. Day. We are very appreciative of this and they will certainly be put to good use. Thank you!

Mrs. Jensen and Mrs. Trepanier's 1st grade classrooms had a classroom pet from Chrysalis to butterfly and released it into the wild!

Both fourth-grade classes have been getting their hands dirty exploring different soil types (loam, sand, clay, and silt). Recently, they experimented to find out which soil is best for growing plants by observing particle size and testing water drainage and retention. They learning about erosion on rocks, how different types of soil hold water and how this affects plant growth.
