Congratulations to Southern Aroostook High School students Luke Harthorne, Jasmine Rush, and Caraline Hartin on their selection to attend the Hugh O'Brian Youth Leadership Conference in the Spring of 2026!
Here is a little information about the program:
HOBY - Hugh O'Brian Youth Leadership - Our flagship program welcomes school nominated students to a 3-4 day seminar in the spring. These student ambassadors participate in facilitated dialogue and abilities-based workshops to develop awareness of their leadership strengths and an understanding of their leadership values. Through these dynamic activities with their peers, students hone their skills and learn to recognize, amplify, and collaborate with the diverse strengths of others. One weekend at a HOBY seminar can unlock a student's leadership potential and help them gain the confidence to make a positive impact on the world around them. Held on June 12th-14th at University of Maine at Farmington.

SACS Juniors and Seniors have had the opportunity to attend a Financial Fitness Fair, sponsored by area Credit Unions.
Financial Fitness Fairs are an insightful and fun budget simulation, similar to the game of “Life.” Participating students are given a career and monthly income, and then have to visit booths associated with various expenses that the average adult is faced with each month. After filling in a monthly budget form, the goal is for students to have a monthly budget that does not exceed their monthly income.
What a practical and FUN learning experience! 🤑💰
