Nokomis Regional High students have the chance to submit framed or matted original artwork into the local and district high school art contest through the GFWC General Federation of Women’s Clubs. Our student’s work is submitted to the GFWC Newport, and work that places moves on to the district competition. This year 28 talented Nokomis high school students completed and submitted work for this contest. Wish them all luck as their work is off for judging next week! We are always so blown away by the creativity and talent of our students.

https://twitch.tv/hussonesportsFor those unfamiliar with Esports, it is a competitive sport outside of traditional sports. With millions of dollars invested at the college level, to include scholarships, and billions of dollars in the professional leagues it continues to expand at the middle and high school level. Our esports program has established itself as a model of consistency, growth and competitive talent. Across every title we have entered, our teams have reliably qualified for postseason play, demonstrating dedication throughout the program. Most notably, our Mario Kart team has achieved an impressive run of four consecutive state championship appearances (soon to be five on April 4th) highlighted by two state titles and two runner up finishes. This success reflects not only individual talent, but also a strong culture of teamwork, preparation and adaptability. Beyond the state level, our program has made a significant mark on the regional stage playing high schools across the country. We earned a #2 ranking on the East Coast (Maine to Florida) in Pokémon Unite taking runner up at the championship. Aside from competition our program continues to foster student growth in communication, collaboration and leadership while building school pride and a strong sense of community. Together, these accomplishments showcase a program that continues to raise the bar and validate its reputation as a leader in competitive scholastic esports.
When a student doesn’t connect with traditional sports, Nokomis Athletics continues to find ways to include them. The addition of Esports has brought many of our students together in a space where their paths may have never crossed.

Students in Mr. Viles and Mr. Hanish's Internship/Curation and Research class have been digitizing and transcribing the historical documents and letters from the Levi Stewart collection. They have also been gathering property tax information on over twenty Corinna residents from the years 1900-1920 to study the towns economic trends prior to and after World War I. In addition, students are currently writing small biographies for the Corinna residents whose portraits are displayed in the town hall that will be accessible on their phones using a QR code. Work will continue throughout the remainder of the semester and the students hope to be able to display their work for the community at some point in late May.

Nearly 30 students, led by Mrs. Wilson and Mrs. Eisenhour, took part in a hands-on anatomy lab at UNE’s Harold and Bibby Alfond Center for Health Sciences.
"We went and actually held body parts - like brains," senior Madeline Brown remarked. "We also met with representatives from the college and the program."
Senior Brylee Beaulieu agreed that it was an enriching experience: "It helped us experience what we've been learning in a textbook about anatomy and see it in real life. This class and trips like this have helped us figure out what the options are in the health field."
The trip included students from Nokomis' Introduction to Healthcare Fundamentals class, offered through our CED department.

Students from Mr. Viles's and Mr. Hanish's Research and Curation Class visited the Maine State Archives in Augusta last Friday. As part of their ongoing work with the Levi Stewart Library in Corinna, these students learned best practices regarding the proper handling and preservation of historical documents. Heather Moran, one of the state archivists, gave students a tour of the newly rebuilt facility and allowed the students to work with such historical documents as a draft of the Maine State Constitution and Col. Joshua Chamberlain's battle report from Little Round Top after the Battle of Gettysburg. Throughout the remainder of the year, the class will be working to preserve, digitize, and display Levi Stewart's extensive collection of letters and legal documents for public use and further research.
