Principal’s Report
Carrabec High school
Peter Campbell
June 4, 2025
I will begin this report by highlighting the class of 2025. The class will be graduating 43 students which includes the two students that the board approved for early graduation. Of the 43 students 30 are pursuing education beyond the secondary level. There is one student entering the armed forces. This leaves 13 students that are prepared to go directly into the workforce. The class of 2025 also had two students choose an alternative pathway (adult education) to complete high school so that they could enter the workforce early. The class also had one student that failed to meet CHS graduation requirements. This class has been awarded nearly $300,000 in scholarships.
Our seniors have played an important role in CHS success in co-curricular activities this year. Our teams have made the playoffs in every major team sport. We also have had several students participate at the state competitions in the individual sports such as cross country and track. Our state level competitors have not been limited to sports. Our school representative in the Poetry Out Loud Contest also made it to the state finals. Last year I reported that the math team had won its third consecutive conference championship. I am proud to state that the math team won its unprecedented 4th conference championship in a row. Currently both our baseball and softball teams are playing at a level that hopefully will see them going deep into the playoffs.
On Friday May 23rd Ms Taylor’s drama club held their dinner theater production. Both the meal and the performances were a success. Ms. Taylor actually had an acting role in Haley Mcfayden’s production. The storyline of the play that Haley wrote and directed was “Carrabec High School Drama Club”. Each actor/actress portrayed themselves.
As I write this report the seniors are about to begin their last finals. The underclassmen will have their finals starting June 9th. As in the past, I am working with those students that need a little extra assistance to make that passing grade. At the same time the staff and I are in the process of identifying those students that might benefit by using summer school to achieve the desired passing grade.
I would like to conclude this report by thanking each of you board members for the support you have given to the schools and to me personally. I would also like to thank the community for helping drive school spirit with their participation in homecoming activities. In addition, thanks go out to the staff that helped change the student culture in the building. Finally, I can not conclude without thanking the students. I took this position in order to help make improvements for students. This year more of you had the trust in me to come seeking help or to give me information needed to make the school a safer place. Thank you for giving me that trust. I have enjoyed working with all of you. My best wishes go out to all of you.
