Great News From Marshwood Middle School

Andrew Rowe

On Tuesday, February 3, the Southern Maine Debate League concluded its 2025-26 season at Marshwood Middle School. Thirty-nine, two-person teams representing North Yarmouth Academy, Yarmouth Middle School, Falmouth Middle School, Cape Elizabeth Middle School, The Middle School of the Kennebunks, and Marshwood Middle School debated whether or not the United States should eliminate physical cash and move to entirely digital forms of payment. Debates took place in classrooms throughout Marshwood Middle School, and the judge pool was comprised of high school students, MMS teachers, parents, and even our Student Resource Officer Govoni and Principal Goulet! 

The Marshwood Middle School Debate Team is coached by 7th grade teacher Andy Rowe. Team members include:

Eighth-graders Turan Maouchehri, Bronwyn Lawson, Sadie Moore, Amelia Kill, Angel Estillore, and Kida Wood; seventh-graders Belle Dotts, Ethan Rosenson, and Dayna Krummel; and sixth-graders Caroline Dornsife, Charlotte Dornsife, Hunter Dornsife, Claire Hudson, Finley Getchell, and Evi Randall. 

Thank you to all the families and staff who made this season a success!
