  1. Basketball Superheroes

    March 18, 2025

    By: Shelly Moody, Principal of Atwood Primary School

    On Friday, February 28th, we welcomed real-life superheroes from the Messalonskee Boys Basketball Team to the Atwood Primary School! The team was greeted with a red carpet welcome and lots of encouraging signs and posters made by students! Coach Smith and the team helped to introduce our superpower of the month – teamwork! Team captains, Drake Brunelle and Ty Bernier, joined Coach Smith in explaining to students that teams work together to reach big goals and that every teammate matters. The boys even joined us in dancing to our song this year, Heroes, We Could Be! Thank you to the team for being superheroes and role models for the youth in our community. We are so proud of your accomplishments! #WeAreRSU18 #AtwoodAwesome


  2. It’s Cool to be Kind

    March 12, 2025

    Atwood Primary students participated in the global Great Kindness Challenge this year as part of their mission to create a culture of compassion and acceptance. Each student designed a mitten as part of their com“mit”ment to fostering kindness in their school community. Each class also participated in a community service project to spread kindness. Classes created cards, decorated rocks with kind messages, as well as made dog bones and cat toys for the Waterville Humane Society. As part of the school community reading event, they collected donations for the Humane Society too! Atwood students know it’s cool to be kind! #WeAreRSU18 #AtwoodAwesome

  5. One Book, One School

    January 22, 2025

    On January 3rd, Atwood Primary staff, led by Title 1 Specialist Mrs. Corson, kicked off Get Cozy and Read Month! The entire school community is reading a book from the Fenway and Hattie book series. Teachers are leading amazing discussions about vocabulary and character perspectives. At the special kick off event, Rob Moody and his service dog, Fenway, joined them to share how Fenway works as a service dog. They even took a few minutes to walk through classrooms to greet students – which was a big hit! As part of this month’s theme, students have been busy reading at home and completing a Bingo board of activities. Atwood can’t wait to wrap up this special reading month on January 23rd at their Family Reading Event! #WeAreRSU18 #AtwoodAwesome
