Paraprofessional Appreciation Day is a special day dedicated to those who work in a classroom supporting students to ensure educational success. In the school sector, paraprofessional educators are also known as Behavior Support Specialists, ISS & Alternative Learning Facilitators, Teacher Assistants, and Paraeductors. These fantastic people deliver targeted support to students who may need extra help and work to maintain the classroom, keeping it running smoothly. Paraprofessionals are the unsung heroes of the education system - without their strong foundation, teachers frequently report feeling overwhelmed and overworked. Paraprofessionals help shoulder the workload and allow teachers to focus on what they do best - teach! Paraprofessional Appreciation Day seeks to bring these professionals to the forefront and show them a little extra love for all the incredible work they do, day in and day out.

Last week, our 8th graders had an exciting opportunity to explore Southeastern Community College’s CTE mobile lab! The mobile lab, equipped with the latest tools, brought hands-on learning experiences in electrical engineering, mechatronics engineering, and HVAC technology right to our school. It was a fantastic way for students to get a glimpse into the future of technical education and explore potential career paths in these growing fields. A big thank you to SCC for providing such an engaging and educational experience! #CTE #CareerExploration

This is a great opportunity offered to our students which will save parents time and money.
