Please join us in giving a warm Southern Aroostook Community School welcome to our new 4th Grade teacher, Delaney Thompson! Originally from right down the road in Hodgdon, Maine, Mrs. Thompson earned her degrees from both the University of Maine at Presque Isle and the University of Maine at Orono. She was inspired to go into education by the opportunity to make a direct, positive impact on students' lives every day. She has an 11-year-old yellow lab named Finnley and enjoys spending time with family and hiking with her husband.
Delaney is excited to build a strong classroom community with her 4th graders and watch them grow. We are so glad to have Ms. Thompson on our team at SACS. Welcome Delaney!
