Tune In! as we continue to celebrate the Class of 2025 in Marion County Schools. Fairmont Senior High School's Ms. Adrin Fisher, NBCT, asked students to set an intention for themselves. They had to write the word and then illustrate it somehow on 5x8 index cards. Then they had to explain the reasons they chose that intention in paragraph form. It's a great way to help the Class of 2025 reflect and prepare for their next step.
