It's Baked Bean Supper time! Connect with the community over a traditional Maine bean supper on Monday, January 19, 2025, from 6-8 pm at the Mount Desert Island High School in Bar Harbor. Feast on all-you-can-eat beans, hot dogs, and brown bread, complete with all the fixings, followed by homemade pies and baked goods.

After supper, join us for a conversation about the first time MDI came together across all towns to form a unified high school. How did islanders overcome obstacles, engage in discussions, and ultimately decide to take the risk and open a new high school? Raney Bench will share a little of this history, and Superintendent Mike Zboray will give a summary of where conversations about an island middle school stand today.
