Hermon, ME - This morning, Senator Susan Collins met with students, faculty, and staff at Hermon Middle School. During her visit, Senator Collins spoke with the entire 8th grade class and described a typical day in the life of a United States Senator. Her presentation gave students an opportunity to see some of the work she does for the state of Maine on a daily basis, including meeting with Mainers, touring Maine businesses, chairing Senate hearings, and speaking on the Senate floor.  She also took questions from the students and stopped in at other classrooms. 

“I was delighted to spend this morning with the bright, enthusiastic students at Hermon Middle School,” said Senator Collins.  “It was a pleasure to talk with them and answer their questions about my experience as a U.S. Senator.  I encouraged each of them to follow their dreams and work to make a positive impact in their communities.” 

Senator Collins has visited more than 200 schools throughout Maine during her Senate service and has long led efforts to honor our nation’s public schools and improve our education system.

Hermon Middle School serves more than 300 students in fifth through eighth grade.
