The Southern Aroostook Community School District was saddened to hear of the passing of longtime educator Mr. Thomas Frazer Sheehan. Mr. Sheehan taught High School Science to So. Aroostook students for decades. His impact on students lives went well beyond the classroom. His sense of humor and ability to connect "real life" to the classroom was an inspiration to his students and colleagues. He was also a great listener and strong advocate for all students. He impacted the lives of many and we are grateful for his lifelong contributions to this school and the community. Our thoughts are with his family and friends during this time.
