On Friday March 1st, the 7th grade had the first dance of the year. It was a whirlwind of excitement and laughter, creating memories that will last a lifetime. From the moment the music started, the cafeteria transformed into a busy dance floor, pulsating with energy and rhythm. Students showcased their best moves, from classic dance steps to spontaneous freestyle bursts. Students in the gym were able to shoot hoops and get their energy out by running around. One of the 8th grade science labs was set up as a game room. It was a night full of fun! Now the other grades are anxiously awaiting their upcoming dances.
Marshwood Middle School would like to send out a great big THANK YOU to our school resource officer for National School Resource Officer day! We heart you Officer Mazur!
We are excited to announce that the 7th grade dance has been scheduled! All 7th graders are invited. No admission fee.
Today MMS celebrated World Read Aloud Day! Ms. Corriveau hosted staff and students in the library today.

Students sat engaged in beautiful picture books, interesting short stories, repulsed by Grimm versions of fairy tales and on the edge of their seats for some scary tales.
The 7th Grade Boys Basketball team closed out their season with a win last Friday against Berwick Academy 52-26. It was a total team effort, where 14 out of 15 Hawks scored. Team Manager, Keoni “Mamba” Delorey got in the game in the second half and scored to the crowd's delight. Team assistant Nathan “good vibes” Duquette also dressed and got into the game in the 4th quarter. The crowd went nuts when Nathan scored on a nice short range jumper. The Hawks finished their last 5 games with a winning record and came together as a team in every possible way. Here's to a successful season, go Hawks!
