Marigolds at Marco Polo!

If you happen to spot marigolds making their way from SJBKE down to our friends at Port Saint John this morning, you’ll know what that means—June has arrived, and it’s time once again for our K–2 students to plant beautiful flowers at the Marco Polo Terminal!

We are so proud to carry on this wonderful Marigold Project tradition, started and lovingly sustained over the years by Mr. Barry Odgen. It’s a special opportunity for our students to contribute their care and creativity while strengthening the meaningful partnership we share with the Port.

If you find yourself along Water Street this summer, be sure to take a moment to enjoy these lovely blooms—each one a reflection of the many caring hands that helped bring them to life.
