Students in the Oceanography class learned recently about the effects of various forms of marine pollution. They were asked to design a community relations poster or other media to persuade the public about the hazards of marine pollution.

In forensic science sometimes the only evidence left at a crime scene is trace evidence. Many times this evidence is in the form of an impression like tire tracks or footprints in the soil. Forensic scientists can create casts of these impressions and analyze them in the lab to identify type of tire/vehicle type or type of shoe, size of shoe, and estimated height of the individual. Students used their knowledge of casting impressions to make casts of their own shoe impressions in sand in the classroom, and also went in the woods around the school making casts of impressions left by animals.

Katahdin Middle/High School ranks in the top 10!!
Hear ye, Hear ye…. We have GREAT news to share!!!
On April 26th, the Portland Press Journal reported that Katahdin Middle/High School made the top 10!! The U.S. News list ranked more than 17,800 public high schools across the nation, including 113 in Maine. The rankings are based on college readiness, reading and math proficiency and performance, underserved student performance, college leave course offerings and graduation rates. Please read the full article. You can find the link below.
There certainly are a lot of variables but we should celebrate this recognition, the students and staff that make it happen. When you are tired of us talking about real world experiences, connections, standards, etc…this is where we are headed…straight to opportunity and success for all students now and in the future. Our goal is to provide the tools and resources students need to make solid decisions, learn from mistakes, and use it all to guide them as lifelong learners.
Go Katahdin Middle /High School ….. where staff guide students investigating connections between learning and life! So proud of everyone!!
