That smile! The last workday before students arrive. The floors are shiny, the rugs are vacuumed, and the desks are clean! Way to get it all done. 🦈

PTA Event Last night

The “Belong” in #BelongGrowSucceed applies to every student, including those with disabilities. That commitment was the focus of the Embracing Differences: This is Me conference at Severn Run High School. Educators and staff had the opportunity to hear from Jordyn Zimmerman, a passionate educator and disability advocate with autism, and participate in a variety of targeted breakout sessions. The event also featured Chesapeake High School graduate Adriana Dorsey, who shared heartfelt reflections on the individuals who supported her journey, as well as remarks from Superintendent of Schools Dr. Mark Bedell. #AACPSFamily #OurStory
