Travis Mills Foundation & SMS Walk-A-Thon.

We are very excited to host our annual Travis Mills Foundation Walk-A-Thon again this year, but with a twist! This year, the day of the event, Wednesday, May 19th, will be a day of walking, running, obstacle course and other fun activities both inside and outside of school, preceded by a month of fundraising and community support.

Our goal this year is to fund two weeks of retreats for families at the Travis Mills Center - $16,000! We are sure to succeed with the dedicated support of our St. Michael School families, parishioners, co-workers, friends, and neighbors. Families, please note that 50% of all funds raised will count towards your family's financial obligation.

Our fundraising efforts will officially kick-off on Monday, April 5th. In addition to pledging to run, walk and engage in other physical activities on May 5th, students will be collecting items to donate to military service members stationed away from their families, writing thank you notes to our service members, and creating flags to hang up for the day of the event. Please support them and spread the word about this great cause.

Be sure to mark your calendars for Wednesday, May 5th, be on the lookout for volunteer opportunities, and rally around our school community and the Travis Mills Foundation.

Congratulations to SMS's own, Mrs. Jennifer Hoffman, Maine Catholic Schools Teacher of the Year!

Bishop Robert Deeley and Superintendent of Maine Catholic Schools, Ms. Marianne Pelletier, presented Mrs. Hoffman with the award during a capstone ceremony for Catholic Schools Week that included heart-felt messages from students and recognition from Principal Cullen. Mrs. Hoffman has worked as a full-time teacher in Catholic schools in Augusta for more than 25 years, first at St. Augustine School and then, after the merger that consolidated St. Augustine and St. Mary into one school, at SMS for the last 13 years. She follows the Hartford Curriculum as the head of the Language Arts department, teaching Grammar, Writing, Reading, and Comprehension to all middle schoolers every day. She oversees our Accreditation Committee, tirelessly organizing the entire staff toward the goal of becoming a NEASC accredited school. As SMS's vice-principal, Mrs. Hoffman is always ready to offer support and guidance to teachers and students, even taking up to the role of principal for months at a time in addition to her other responsibilities whenever Mr. Kevin Cullen's health has required it.

What really sets Mrs. Hoffman apart as an educator, a colleague, and a human being is that she truly lives her faith all day, every day, inspiring other teachers, staff and students to follow her lead. Instead of pushing people up the hill, Mrs. Hoffman is the first one charging up, calmly yet cheerfully leading the way forward. Mrs. Hoffman is a treasure to the SMS community and a most deserving teacher of this award. We could not be more proud of her.
