Lisbon – The sounds of the season came alive at the Lamp Alzheimer’s Facility in Lisbon on Thursday, December 18.   The facility administrators welcomed the performances of a Lisbon School district-wide group of carolers from Lisbon Community School (LCS), Philip W. Sugg Middle School (PWS) and Lisbon High School (LHS).  Lamp employees and residents expressed their thanks to students for their gift of kindness by providing an evening of holiday cheer.  “Our students were delighted to present this program for the fifth year,” comments Lisbon’s Community Resource Coordinator, Monica Millhime.   “Thanks to the galvanized efforts by parents and our very talented LCS/PWS Music Teacher, Jonathan Pollack, students throughout the Lisbon School District were able to share a memorable evening with the residents.”  “Lisbon is a wonderful community of sharing and caring students, parents, educators and community folks,” shared Millhime.  FMI on additional community events and opportunities for volunteering and partnerships in education call 754-0021 or email mmillhime@lisbonschoolsme.org.
