Lyman Elementary: For the 21/22 School Year Peer Helpers voted on what they’d like to do to give back to our Lyman community. The whole Project, from start to finish, was Peer Helper run. During the month of May, Peer Helpers collected items to donate to York County Shelter. Their goal was to collect 6 boxes. In the end they collected 8 boxes of items (some of which didn’t make it into the picture), which consisted of toiletries, linens, art supplies, food, etc. To Celebrate their success, Peer Helpers hosted a whole grade Pizza Party Picnic. Wonderful job, Peer Helpers, on learning about Service and Responsibility!

Lyman Elementary :The local forest ranger came to visit our 2nd grade classes today. He talked to the students about different trees we have in Maine, how trees grow, how long they live, and ways to keep them healthy. We took a nature walk and found a pine tree that he used a device to make a hole in the tree to figure out how old the tree is. He also talked to them about different types of trees and how we classify them.

The 2nd graders at Lyman Elementary participated in a Town Project. The students learned about economics by studying topics such as goods vs. services, exchanging money, scarcity, and making good economic choices. As a final project, they each got the opportunity to create their own business. They produced their own handmade goods and sold their items or services to their second grade peers. Some businesses included a paper airplane store, a keychain store, and a Pokemon card store!
LES Fifth graders Lucas Barrigar, Abbigale TwoHearts-Decesare, Lawrence McCusker, and Elijah Tarbox participated in a field trip to Massabesic Middle School to meet the principal, social workers, nurse, and more! The students also joined a student-led tour of MMS to familiarize themselves for next year.
Lyman Elementary students watched as their egg containers were dropped from the roof to test if they would keep the egg safe. We dropped over 150 very creative containers. Thank you to all who participated in this fun event.
Lyman Elementary Fifth graders Abbigale , Lawrence , Elijah , and Lucas participated in the very first "Bagel Biz" on Friday, April 8th.
