Central Middle School is partnering with Penquis this year to support Substance Affect Youth (SAY). On Thursdays and Fridays, counselors with the SAY program will be at CMS from 11 am to 3 pm. They will be helping out around the school, getting to know students, providing assistance where appropriate, and eventually working with students individually and in small groups. For years, we have worked with various outside agencies for substance abuse counseling and support for students. This year is the first time we have worked with Penquis for this service. If you have questions about our involvement with this program, please feel to contact the school.
