Maine is fortunate!
We know that what a teacher offers can have an enormous impact on students development and over their lifetime. As educators retire at the close of another school year I know that you will join me in THANKING them for their years of service and dedication to students across the state. Maine appreciates your work and we wish you well and many healthy years of laughter!
Combined they have taught for 372 years. Happy Retirement!
