“Principal Jamie Selfridge’s dedication to Caribou High School has made a meaningful difference in the lives of students, teachers, and the local community. In addition to her previous work as a middle school teacher, she has been a strong advocate for rural schools through her role as a co-facilitator of the National Association of Secondary School Principals Rural Schools Network.
“As a graduate of Caribou High School, I am especially proud to join the community in celebrating this well-earned recognition.
