Last update: 11 hours ago

Memorial Day in Maine: Civil War reenactors brought drums, bugles, and musket drills to the 5th Maine Museum on Peaks Island, kicking off the museum’s season with a living-history nod to how the holiday grew from the Civil War era. End-of-life care: A Maine woman is working as a “death doula,” offering emotional and physical support so families can navigate a “good death.” Education tech: The University of Maine System is rolling out system-wide ChatGPT Edu access starting July 2026 for faculty, staff, and students. Immigration and community response: After an ICE detention, a teen was released and hundreds gathered in Menemsha for a rally calling for families to be brought home. Politics on the move: Gov. Janet Mills remains on the June ballot even after suspending her Senate campaign, while the race around Democratic nominee Graham Platner keeps heating up. School performance snapshots: New state-reported English Language Arts proficiency figures highlight county-by-county differences, including notable gaps by gender.
