An early 🌟 Happy Volunteer Appreciation Week! 🌟 to our incredible volunteers.

Your time, energy, and compassion make a world of difference in the lives of the students in Brunswick. Whether you're behind the scenes or on the front lines, your dedication and kindness do not go unnoticed.

Thank you for showing up, for caring deeply, and for being the change-makers this world needs. You remind us every day that even the smallest acts of kindness can create ripples of impact.

We are endlessly grateful for each and every one of you.

Robert Baskett

School Psychologist

Robert's family includes his partner, Michelle, (smartest faculty member at University of Southern Maine). Grown children, all graduates of BHS: Dante (now in California), Luka and Sophia (reside in Maine). Dogs, cats, geese, ducks, chickens, and I think there's a muskrat in the pond right now. Robert grew up in Claremont, California, about thirty miles southeast of LA, where they'd claim frostbite if it got below 50 degrees! He attended Claremont High School in Claremont CA and attended New School for Social Research, in New York, NY.

What makes you proud to work in Brunswick? #BSDProud

Being part of a community that values education takes care of it's resources, and works together.

What do you like to do outside of work for fun?

I like to be outside with my shepherd/huskie Mili, wet, muddy, and a little cold.

Favorite line from a movie?

"You're going to need a bigger boat," from Jaws

If you could meet anyone, living or dead, who would you meet?

Any Neanderthal. You know, just to say "hey."

What is something you learned in the last week?

About 2500 years ago, citizens in Athens chose people by lottery for some positions of responsibility in government. Imagine someone calling you out of the blue saying "You there. You're now the Town Manager for Kennebunk."
