Lyman Elementary Students wish you a Happy Thanksgiving and break! Enjoy these creative turkeys drawn by students in Mrs. Walsh's class.
Our 2nd drawing for a fancy lunch with Mrs. Pellerin was a success. We started the positive behavior initiative at the 3-5 lunch as well and have already started to see some
Improvements!!!! So proud of our students at Lyman Elementary.
MMS’s Team Carrabassett celebrated our upcoming holiday today with Thanksgiving-themed STEM activities—popcorn launchers, cranberry towers, and turkey transporters. What fun! Happy early Thanksgiving to all of our MMS families and friends!

5th graders at Lyman Elementary received a visit from Mickey, a cat who was rescued and brought back to health by the Animal Welfare Society in Kennebunk. Brie Roche, the Youth Humane Educator, taught the students how the shelter helps animals and what we can do to support their efforts. On December 2nd, the fifth graders will begin collecting food and other items for the shelter. More information to come!

Mrs. Richard’s 4th grade class from Lyman had Dr. Goldman visit and talk about biomedical engineers, he explained how he uses what the engineers invent . He also showed us how the heart works and explained how engineers have designed many devices to help people over the years. Some devices have even helped a paraplegic person walk! This lesson with Dr. Goldman was to help enhance students understanding of our current science unit. The students will be designing and working on ways to improve their designs just as engineers have done.
We had a great turnout on Thursday for Lyman Elementary’s literacy and numeracy family night. We had over 100 participants. A huge thank you to our Literacy and Numeracy Staff for putting on such a great night.
UPDATE: Evacuation at MHS
This morning during Block 1 a propane operated Bunsen burner caught fire in a Science Lab classroom at the West Building and required extinguishing by district staff. Students and staff were evacuated and then relocated to the East Building on campus. The Fire Department responded and evaluated the situation. There were no injuries or significant property damage. In addition, the district’s propane provider was asked to conduct a safety inspection.
Due to the time required to complete the safety inspection the decision was made to dismiss students and close the campus until the inspection could be completed. Dismissal began at 10:30am for all high students and all other schools operated as scheduled.
At 1:10pm the propane provider deemed the building safe for re-entry. Students who need to gather belongings at the West Building can do so today between 3-5pm. Please report to the main office so a staff member can assist.
All evening events on campus will remain cancelled as previously communicated. Weekend activities will be held as scheduled.
Thank you to all who assisted with this process as well as to the students for their cooperation and flexibility.
Sincerely,
Larry Malone, Superintendent
Fifth grade students at Line and Shapleigh persevere with Breakout Boxes based on content that connects to their Engineering is Elementary & science units!
