Tomorrow our boys soccer team travels to Bangor to play Calais in the Northern Maine regional soccer final.

Our team van will be leaving at 1:45. We will be giving our players a super supportive send off with our student body. Parents are welcome to participate as well, as we hope to line campus drive as they head to the game. GO PIRATES!

Congratulations to the PCMS boys soccer team for winning the Small School Penquis League Championship!!

SAD 4 staff experience outdoor learning opportunities The rural location of the SAD 4 campus housing both Piscataquis Community Secondary School and Piscataquis Community Elementary School provides a number of assets for teachers and students such as trails through the woods, space for gardening, an outdoor classroom, a courtyard in the middle of the grade 7-12 school, and more. How these can be incorporated into place-based learning was the subject of an afternoon program for teachers and staff on Oct. 10 following an early release day for students. https://observer-me.com/2024/10/16/news/sad-4-staff-experience-outdoor-learning-opportunities/?fbclid=IwY2xjawF82eVleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHYwdQwF_pgZCcxiOP43bXQRNBA-Yku8XcrsTr5rdldBuvPu2oRWyFRTTeg_aem_ZlcggJJ-z4BYQVPZ0YbZsg
