Intergalactic Adventures: Sebring Students Discover the Wonders of Space at Family Engagement Night

Recently, Sebring students and their families gathered at the gymnasium of B.L. Miller Elementary for a family engagement night that featured a mobile planetarium called “Sky Dome”. The event, sponsored by United Way’s Success After 6 program, aimed to spark curiosity and interest in space exploration following the solar eclipse on April 8.

Over 200 attendees participated in guided tours of the universe presented by Mobile Ed Productions, who provided an enriching and interactive experience for all attendees. Jill Dennis, the family engagement coordinator for Sebring Local Schools and Success After 6 coordinator, expressed gratitude for the collaboration that made the event possible. Families had a great time learning about the sun, moon, stars, and universe in a unique and engaging way.

Partners In Education (P.I.E.) contributed to the event by providing food for purchase, with funds raised going towards future activities and events for Sebring students. In addition to the planetarium tours, families enjoyed playing bingo in between sessions, with winners receiving Oh WOW! STEM Sak bundles. One lucky student even won a National Geographic 70m Sky View Telescope as a grand prize, courtesy of SA6.

Overall, the family engagement night at Sebring was a success
