Seminole Students Attend HOBY Leadership Seminar
Four Seminole County Middle High School students—Sydnee Stegall, AnnaLane Stewart, Malyn Smith, and Kayden Peter—represented our school this summer at the Hugh O'Brian Youth Leadership (HOBY) Leadership Seminar.
HOBY is designed to develop and inspire young leaders through interactive activities, collaboration, and service-focused experiences. Throughout the seminar, students had the opportunity to strengthen their leadership skills, build relationships with peers from across the state, and learn how to make a positive impact in their schools and communities.
While attending the seminar, the students also had the opportunity to reconnect with former Seminole County Indian and past HOBY participant Johnelle Simpson, who remains actively involved with the program. It was great for our students to see a former Indian continuing to give back and help develop future leaders.
We are proud of Sydnee, AnnaLane, Malyn, and Kayden for representing Seminole County so well and look forward to seeing how they use their leadership experiences to make a positive impact during the upcoming school year.

Middle School Summer Enrichment Students Enjoy Trip to Seminole State Park
Students participating in the Middle School Summer Enrichment Program enjoyed their first Thursday field trip of the summer with a visit to Seminole State Park. The students spent the morning exploring nature, enjoying the outdoors, and taking in the beautiful scenery around Lake Seminole. Many enjoyed sitting on the dock with their feet in the water, while others tried their luck at fishing and even caught a few fish.
It was a great day of learning, exploration, and fun outside the classroom. The trip provided students with an opportunity to connect with nature, spend time with friends, and create lasting summer memories. We look forward to more exciting enrichment activities throughout the summer!

In recognition of Mental Health Awareness Month, our school counselors, social worker, and GAP counselor set up in the lunchroom to connect with students and promote positive mental health. Students were able to stop by for conversations, pictures, and information about healthy ways to cope with stress and anxiety.
