Today we honor our amazing cafeteria team for National School Lunch Hero Day! 👏 From perfect pizza to kind smiles, you make our schools a better place. We stopped by South Mebane Elementary and Hillcrest today for these photos. Governor Stein was also at Hillcrest and took time to say thanks!
South Mebane Elementary School students took part in an exceptional Career Day featuring over 40 ABSS community members, thanks to the SME PTO! The school was bustling with an impressive array of professionals—from city council members and police officers to healthcare providers, beekeepers, engineers, armed forces personnel, photographers, personal trainers, martial artists, Delta representatives, City of Mebane officials, and many more!
Special thanks to NC Jelly Donuts and Ashlee Blackard of Mary Kay for providing the wonderful meet-and-greet breakfast for presenters. Our students thoroughly enjoyed exploring the hands-on exhibits and discovering potential career paths.
The PTO wishes to recognize the dedicated parent volunteers who made this event possible, the SME students for their exemplary behavior and insightful questions, and most importantly, all the community members who made such a meaningful impact by inspiring our future leaders!
