Counseling in a Historic Coastal Community

RSU 21 (formerly MSAD 71) serves students from Kennebunk, Kennebunkport, and Arundel — a district where the children of lobstermen, small business owners, and summer-estate families share classrooms. School counselors at Kennebunk High School and the district's elementary and middle schools navigate the economic stratification that defines this resort-adjacent community: the student whose family has fished these waters for generations sitting next to the student whose family summers in an oceanfront compound. Beast Putty serves as common ground in the counseling office — a tool that appeals to any student regardless of whether their family hauls traps or owns them.

Seasonal Economy and Student Wellbeing

The Kennebunkport economy peaks in summer when tourists flood Dock Square and the coastal hospitality industry operates at full capacity. When September arrives, jobs disappear and the financial stress of Maine's long off-season settles into households. School counselors see the impact in increased referrals through fall and winter — students absorbing parental anxiety about making it through to the next tourist season. Beast Putty in the counseling office provides a sensory anchor during conversations about economic pressures that feel too adult for teenagers to carry.

New England Resilience and Outdoor Education

Maine schools value hands-on, experiential education — RSU 21 students participate in outdoor programs and place-based learning connected to the maritime heritage of the Kennebunks. School counselors integrate sensory tools into this active learning culture. Beast Putty travels from the counseling office to the field trip to the after-school program, providing portable self-regulation for students who need sensory support across the varied environments of a coastal Maine school experience. For the student with sensory needs navigating a school day that moves between classroom, gym, and coastline, putty provides continuity.
