Today, we had the immense privilege of hosting State Superintendent Dr. Tony Sanders at Springfield Southeast High School! Superintendent Jennifer Gill and SSHS Principal Cody Trigg warmly welcomed him into the heart of the Spartan community. (Click Here For Photos)
Our Health and Science Academy dazzled as Mr. Potter's classroom transformed into a hive of excitement. Students eagerly immersed themselves in an interactive DNA lab, conducting experiments in real-time. 
Dr. Sanders didn't just observe – he fully embraced the learning journey, standing shoulder to shoulder with our students. 
Together, we're charting the course for the future of education!
But the day didn't end there! Principal Trigg underscored the paramount importance of mental health for our students. Guiding Dr. Sanders into our Peace Room, they delved into a conversation about the indispensable support offered by our dedicated social workers and clinicians. 
Two impassioned students shared their deep appreciation for this resource, underscoring its profound impact within our Spartan family. Their voices resonated with Dr. Sanders himself, echoing the sentiment that mental health support is a cornerstone for all.
