“What do you want to be when you grow up?” This is what South Portland Middle School students explored during Career Day! Presenters from different industries–including nursing, dentistry, martial arts, meteorology, banking, media, public safety, advertising, videography, and many more–visited 5th and 6th grade classes to answer questions and talk about their career paths. (A furry friend even joined from the Office of State Fire Marshal!) Career Day ended with an exciting keynote speech from Sea Dogs General Manager, Jesse Scaglion, who spoke about all the various careers involved in the sports industry.

All is Welles (and Willa, too!) sponsored South Portland Middle School's 6th grade Tiger Shark Team for "Mismatched Socks Day" in honor of World Down Syndrome Day on March 21st. The date 3/21 is significant to Down Syndrome, as it represents the 3 copies of chromosome 21, which is unique to people with Downs Syndrome. Mismatch socks are commonly worn on World Down Syndrome Day as a way to celebrate our differences. By embracing our differences, we come together and create a brighter community, and inclusion for all.
