Regional School Unit 1 -

This week Bath Tech hosted a Summer bridge program for students entering 9th and 10th grade. Students were able to experience a different program each day for five days. This exciting summer experience will give students an opportunity to participate in career and technical experiences with a STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) focus. Students participated in culinary arts, cosmetology, graphic design, welding, automotive, carpentry and electrical.

Bath Tech staff and students have been baking like crazy this week!! Almost 250 cookies were sent to Dike Newell and Fisher Mitchell teachers. More treats will be made for first responders as a thank you for all they have had to do this week. We can do this! We stand together in RSU 1!

Phippsburg Elementary School enjoyed the beautiful weather with some outside time. The kids participated in field day, navigating some challenging obstacles with their friends. Fun time for teachers and students!

This morning Fisher-Mitchell School welcomed our Dike-Newell community with open arms! We're off to a great start and are so thankful students & staff can be together for the last week of school despite our circumstances!
