Thanks to the Teaching the Genome Generation program from The Jackson Laboratory sophomore biology students at KMHS were able to work with high tech biological equipment at school for two weeks. TtGG is all about giving high school students in New England access to molecular biology equipment to further their understanding of genetics and genomics in a genetics/genomics based world.
One of the most important tools in a microbiologist's tool belt is the micropipette (as seen in pictures). The first of four labs sophomore biology students completed as part of this program is the "rainbow pipette" activity, where students use the micropipettes to move varying amounts of water and food coloring to create a rainbow to hone their micropipette skills for the next four labs.
Thank you to Mr. Hannigan and his students for making relevant connections between sciences and the world we live in!
The next paint and snack class will be held on Wednesday, May 24 at 5:30 p.m. at KMHS (RSU 89 Adult Education). Please call 365-4284 to sign up for this class. The class is $25.00. Great for a fun night out! No art experience needed. All materials and supplies are provided.
When you see these guys around give them a big thank you. They spent hours making brackets and then putting them on the poles for the senior banners and they look fantastic. Thanks you
From the bottom of our hearts.
Katahdin Middle High School's NHS members volunteered and helped out at today's Special Olympics Events today in Presque Isle. Great weather, great students, and a wonderful event! Thank you to all of the members who participated and supported our regional Special Olympians!
Students in grades 3 and 5 visited the Penobscot River Trails. A shared writing activity from Mrs. Mann-McLaughlin's class highlights the excitement and determination felt out on the river that day!
The KMHS Art Show display has been up since the first week of May and most certainly deserves the spotlight this month as it has decorated the auditorium. Thank you to Mrs. Howes and all of our talented artists for sharing your hard work and creativity! Congratulations to our High School Art Show winners and a special thank you for sharing your expression and inspiration with our community!
KES will be hosting our monthly food pantry tomorrow from 2:30 to 4:00.
Doors will not open until 2:30. Please do not plan to come early as it interferes with student pickup.
Last night's KMHS Middle School Awards dinner hosted by National Honor Society was a community event like no other. Families, staff, and community members gathered to celebrate with a tasty Italian dinner then shifted to the auditorium to hear mini-bios and words of wisdom from NHS members about each individual middle school honoree. Thank you to all who attended, gathered, and supported our young rising stars!
