Lisbon – Members of the Lisbon High School Class of 2014 were able to deposit close to $700 to their Project Graduation account thanks to the generous donation of two tickets to Boston compliments of the Northern New England Passenger Rail Authority.  Students held a raffle for the tickets and other items as a fundraiser.   Committee members attribute the success of their project to the community support from Food City, Lisbon Federal Credit Union, and the Lisbon Transfer Station for allowing students the opportunity to sell tickets on the weekends.  “Over the last four years, we have been very fortunate to have community sponsors like Northern New England, and so many others, supporting our student endeavors to defray the costs associated with their graduation,” shares Senior Class Advisor, Monica Millhime.    “Parents continue to be the driving force in assisting and supporting students with their fundraising projects.  We are fast approaching our graduation date of May 30, and thanks to the galvanized efforts of parents and our community, students continue to raise money for graduation.” FMI on other events and programs at Lisbon High School, email mmillhime@lisbonschoolsme.org or visit us on Facebook at Community Resource News in Lisbon Schools.
