Yesterday, the After school program outdoor adventure class learned about protecting wetlands. They also learned about some edible plants that grow in our woods around us. The verdict? Dandelions taste like yuck but Trout Lily’s taste like a fresh picked string bean from the garden. It was stressed to them never eat anything from the forest unless your with an adult that knows.

The Local Girl ScoutTroop dropped off Girl Scout cookies for our Bus Drivers and Custodians in appreciation of their work here at RSU 50. Thank you!!

SACS ASP is trying to raise money for supplies, projects, field trips, guest speakers, ski tickets, and more. Usually our fall drama performances help raise money for activities and supplies not covered by the 21st Century grant but due to COVID safety regulations, we aren't able to perform in person. The link below will bring you to the school website to see videos and messages from students in the after school program. You will also find images of some of their artwork and photography. Please help out by donating to our fundraiser. We hope you enjoy it. https://www.rsu50.org/o/rsu50/page/spring-fundraiser Thank you for all your support!
