🙌The @sep_middleschool was hoppin' this morning! And our school board's perfectly timed visit allowed them to see all of the action.

As the board toured the building, they experienced the 7th Grade Annual Career Fair and the 6th Grade Annual Build Day.

Back in the ...media center, a group of student leader panelists, each representing a different Leader in Me group (for example, RAMbassadors, Yearbook, Lighthouse, RAMazon, Newspaper, Assembly Leaders, Office Helpers and Botony), shared their thoughts and provided insight about various subjects with the board and SEP Leadership.

It was a great morning, filled with engaging conversations, unique learning opportunities and lots of smiles! 😎

Thanks to Turner Construction for facilitating another awesome Build Day!

Thanks to all of the vendors who participated in the Career Fair!

Way to go, #1SEP Middle School! You are on 🔥!
