A fresh new voice!

The Junior High and Senior High Student Councils welcomed a total of 41 new students to SBEC at a lunch in their honor on Wednesday, Aug. 25. The student council members introduced each new student and found out interesting information about them. Comments like, “The teachers really like us,” and “I can’t believe there are no locks on the lockers,” were heard in conversations with the new students. The new students come from three states (Arkansas, Mississippi and Tennessee) and three countries (Germany - two students, South Korea and China). At the junior high lunch (above), new students (back row, left-to-right) Jonathan Campbell, David Cummings, (front row) Katherine Mims and Keiaries Davis were welcomed by student council members Casey Vincent and Natalie Watson. During the high school lunch (below), the new students paused to have their picture taken with student council members, (from left) Mary Gates Talbot (representative), Wesley Pena (secretary/treasurer), Josiah Kargbo (new student), Lincoln Pearson (new student), and Olivia Williams (representative).
