Recently, #student leaders from across #BedfordCountySchools joined peers from across the state for the Tennessee School Boards Association Student Congress on Policies in Education (SCOPE),🗣️✨ an event dedicated to elevating student voice in public education. 📚💡
This year’s SCOPE brought together high school #students to examine the real challenges facing public schools in Tennessee 🏫. Through mock school board sessions and spirited debates ⚖️🗳️, students stepped into the roles of decision-makers, parents, educators and community members to explore solutions and share their perspectives. 💬🌟
Last week, these amazing students were recognized at our school board meeting, and we couldn’t be more proud of their professionalism, insight and #leadership 👏. Their willingness to speak up and engage in meaningful conversations shows just how bright the future of public education truly is.🌟

Students in instructor Karra Garrett's Biology class at #ShelbyvilleCentralHighSchool, recently took science from the textbook to the lab. During a hands-on activity, #students broke down strawberry cells and successfully extracted visible DNA.🔬
🍓Strawberries contain a large amount of DNA, making them the perfect organism for this exciting lab! Watching genetic material appear right before their eyes made for a memorable moment of discovery and a great example of learning through exploration.🧪🔍
