Orono board honors girls Class AA state champion track & field team
Summary
The Orono Public Schools board recognized the high school girls Class AA state champion track & field team at its June 9 meeting, calling each athlete and coach forward and noting multiple school and state records set this season.
The Orono Public Schools board paused its regular business on June 9 to recognize the Orono High School girls Class AA state champion track & field team, the first state championship in the program's history, Superintendent Christy Flesher said.
"We are beyond thrilled to bring the Orono High School girls track team here tonight for the first time in school history," Flesher said, listing season achievements including multiple school records and podium finishes across events. She individually acknowledged student athletes called forward for congratulations and thanked families and coaches for their support.
Coaches Nathan Porter and Addie Helen were also recognized, and the board invited team members and families to take photos and refreshments following the ceremony.
The recognition required a motion to adjust the agenda earlier in the meeting so the students could be honored before other items; that motion was approved by voice vote.
